  • Psd files in FCP can’t move them except by hand

    Posted by Richard Altman on January 20, 2009 at 12:03 am

    Hi

    First off lemme say, I’ve used Final Cut I like it, except coming from Premiere I have some things that i just don’t seem to understand.

    In this case, i have some photoshop layers, they are individual and i want to keep them that way, i’d like to move them around a bit though

    i highlight the one i want to move in the time line,

    i’m lost after that, everything i seem to do doesn’t seem to work, so any explanation would be great, i’m an expert in this with premiere.

    thanks

    You have to keyframe the movement using the Motion tab. Pretty much identical to how you would do this in AE and probably in Premiere.

    You manually set the first keyframe. The move the playhead to where you want the next keyframe, move the layer and so on.

    only problem is you have to go into the canvas and move the object by hand, is there no twirl down options like in premiere giving you position ranges you can slide so as to not alter more than you have to?
