Why can’t I move 2 clips?
Posted by Xavier Paredes on October 4, 2018 at 6:50 pmI know I can copy and paste them elsewhere, but I’d like to know why you can’t move them via drag and drop.
Thanks, Xavier

How about if you remove it from the Storyline then move?
Or use the Position “P” tool. -

October 4, 2018 at 8:54 pmLooks like you are selecting the clips within the right secondary as well as the secondary itself. You need to select just the shelf and not the clips (and transitions).
I hope Apple fixes the way this works because it can be rather annoying.

October 4, 2018 at 9:11 pmIt looks like, it, but look at how the clip and the transitions are selected in that one, and not in the one on the left.
Maybe try zoom in a little before you select.

October 4, 2018 at 10:40 pmYes, I noticed that the transitions of one of the clips are selected but the ones for the other one aren’t. I can’t get FCP to select all transitions for both clips.
I tried everything I can think of. No matter what I do, it doesn’t work.
Anyone else knows if this is a bug. It’s really silly that FCP can’t do something so basic.

Also, a preferences trash won’t hurt, either.

October 4, 2018 at 11:27 pmI tried zooming in.
I also tried separating them.
Nothing works. Really strange.

Quit FCPX, hold down option-command and launch FCPX.
