Is there a way to Search Markers???

The clip in the browser, see how it now has a triangle (called a disclosure triangle) on the left of it? Click on it and you will see a list of your markers. And you can press CMD-F to find what you want.

yeah, that was the first thing I tried. It won’t give me a list, even when I type in clips and markers that I know are there it won’t give me a list. :

[Paul Factora]

ok, wait, they are all highlighted.

thanks Shane.

[Paul Factora]

ok wait.

this is weird. I click ‘Find Next’ and it will highlight the first item that matches in the bin.

I click ‘Find All’ and it tells me that nothing matches????

[Shane Ross]

Hmmm…it’s working for me. I made 12 markers, 6 of them with the same word. I pressed CMD-F and typed the word. it highlighted it for me. I pressed CMD-G, it found the next one…then the next one, then the next one.

Worked fine.

Are you doing that in the timeline? I think Paul is talking about the Browser. Digital Heaven has an app that will print out marker info.

All the best,

Yes, it’s a tawdry system at best. I hope that FCS gets a metadata overhaul whenever the next version hits the air waves.

I think that closing FCP and deleting any cache files helps with this. Sometimes simply relaunching the FCP project helps as it seems to add the new text into the database somewhere.
