Marking clips used in your edit?
How do you mark clips that you’ve used in your sequence?
If you have many clips in your browser/media library and you want to clearly see which clips were already used, without looking through them and comparing?
Even iMovie ’11 had that function – sections of clips that were used had an orange line through them. Is it possible to do in FCPX? Other then making them your favorites?

You can see all the clips you are using in your sequence in a list view. Open up the drawer on the bottom right next to the film reel icon. It’s the same place you can view all your tags (markers) you’ve put into your project.

When i put an In Out point on a clip that i want to use it in my project i just assign a keyword (Used) in that (i assigned control + 1) and its easy to find all those clips.

Good tip this thanks.
Only 1 extra keypress but will save a lot of pain towards the end of edit.
cheers,
