i just got off the phone with my instructor..

DONE AND DONE.

problem.. stabilize disappears from the options in the inspector. or attributes..

this is because the clip has been compounded.. you cannot use this attribute to a compounded clip.

So. start over. Delete the clip that we so crudely got into the timeline by making it a compound clip.. and then dragged it in.

then, go back to the source clip in the browser.. set your in and out points again.. and then “connect the selected clip to the primary storyline”

there is a button for this just above the timeline.. a set of 3 buttons. towards the end of buttons starting with the Import from camera button!

Gotta love it!

fixed.

you may need to trim the clip back down to the point of interest that you started with.. otherwise you are working with the entire native length of the clip.

got it! double click the clip in the time line that you would like to Analyze and Stabilize.. double click again. and again. until you can’t reduce the file any further and then VUALA! its back! the option is back in the inspector.. also, the clip, in the timeline, has a drop down arrow in the top right corner.. you can find the stabilize option from that list as well.

still learning.. but loving the upgrade for sure. big curve. but worth it in the end. I have yet to take the course offered by an instructor friend of mine.. should prove to be promising. contact me for info. he offers on-site training. brilliant man. anyways. hope that helps.
