Closing a project FCPX
Posted by Peter Vandall on March 5, 2014 at 8:27 pmI have read online that you can’t close a project. But how about at least hiding it? I shuttle back and forth from project to project a lot, and it would be great to not jump into a project I’m not using. Is there a work around.
And while were on the subject, is there a keyboard shortcut to jump between projects?
Thanks!
Pete

March 5, 2014 at 8:43 pmDo you mean to hide it from the recent project navigation arrows at the top left of the project window?
Less than a minute of testing discovered that if you close ANY library, it clears out the recent project cache and closes all projects. So if you want to hide/close all the projects, close any open library. But when you reopen it, it will open with the last project open.
No hot keys I know of. Maybe programmable.

March 6, 2014 at 2:55 pmFWIW there is a hot key to switch between projects. cmd+[ and cmd+] is timeline history back and forward.

I wondered about this also.
What I have done is made another Library called unused projects. I just moved the ones I’m not working on to that and I can close that Library and poof

March 6, 2014 at 8:23 pmThanks everybody for the help. Its funny that they have an option to open a project, but not to close it. Thanks for the tips on making a new library of unused projects and the hot key to switch!

August 6, 2016 at 6:40 pmClosing a project in FCPX Ver 2…How did you move the project to the Unused Project Folder? I tried dragging but it didn’t work.
Are there any new ways to close a project in FCPX Ver 2
