Musings on FCPX’s most powerful feature.
-
In FCP7, to scrub a thumbnail, you must use the little hand icon.
Control-h is the shortcut.

okay Jeremy thanks could you walk me through this step by step please
-
Control-h
Scrub a thumbnail in browser or timeline.
It’s not very useful.
-
okay thanks well thats a new one on me but I agree pretty useless but something they have quite righlly looked at as an interesting function.
I hated FCPX.
But now it seems so much more intuitive

It’s designed to let you set the poster frame for the clip. It’s it. It’s not designed for editing.

[Charlie Austin] “CS 6 Hover Scrub does lets you mark I/O points, but very imprecisely.”
Sorry Charlie, I don’t know what you’re talking about. Hover scrub lets you skim, and use full JKL keyboard control to find your I/O points. It’s frame accurate. Maybe you’re holding it wrong! 😉

[Steve Connor] “Well this thread was pretty civil for a while at least.”
Notice that I seldom fire back at anyone unless they call me out BY NAME.
Kinda my “rules of engagement.”
Which I think are pretty fair.

Hey, you’re right. I was holding it wrong. 🙂 I don’t like it as much, but they did a good job of copying X! If they could copy clip skimming, and get rid of the tracks they’d be on to something! 😉

Like sending everybody else to Avid?

Jeremy mate – you know as well as I do that I have spoken pretty carefully in favour of everything bar the core timeline at this point.
