I *think* I found a bug in the wording of the FCPX help for this action. I wanted to move some clips from one event to the other. I noticed that it COPIED the original files to the new event (with all the time suck that involves), when I just wanted to retain the reference like it did in the first event. To do this you have to do COMMAND-drag.

The Help says …

“If both Events are on the same hard disk: Drag the clips from one Event to the other.” –> Both my events were on the same external FW drive (as is the entire project) but it still copied the original file

“If the Events are on separate hard disks: Command-drag the clips from one Event to the other.” —> seems like you have to do this always.
