Reconnect
Surely there is a smarter way for reconnect to work. So I am hoping one of the many here who are smarter than I can tell me what I am doing wrong.
Whenever I change a Live type element and then Save it in LT, then command Tab back to FCP, it tells me I need to reconnect.
Then I have to browse to the folder containing the file and then tell it to connect. Why cant we just have a little check box that says “Duh, please look again”. It would save a lot of time.
Is there someplace in FCP where I can tell it to just check again instead of having to do it for the application?Thanks!

So back to the original question. Is there a way to get FCP to “Look again”?
Example:
Editing. External drive gets unplugged. Oops. Gets plugged back in. FCP says it cant find the files.
I want to press a button that says “Look again in the same location”Since we dont have that amazingly basic choice, I have to find each file again. With 300 files it can be quite anoying.
These are files exported from another application and they are each in thier own folder, not in one folder.“Check Again” anyone?
