Sorry to drag this old thread back to life, but I’m confused and could use help.

I have long interview clips captured to HDD and imported to FCP 7. I preview the clips in the viewer window, tagging in and out for an answer, moving the playhead to the mid point of the selected part and hit m m to create a marker and pull up the marker edit dialogue. Then I drag that answer to my timeline.

I create a slightly shortened version of the interview (because I’m deleting the off-camera questions, and skipping some flubbed answers all together) and more important I now have a series of markers with a brief summary of the answer. So far, all good …

Question: How come sometimes this results in an option in the browser to hit a down arrow that appears beside the long interview source clip that will reveal all the markers, with names and timecode … and other times it doesn’t. Right now I have four sequences in an FCP project, and each is essentially the same structure — long clip chopped down, with a marker for each chopped clip to explain content. They are NOT sequence markers, so don’t show up in the canvas, they are clip markers so do show up in the viewer. But only one of the four also has the down arrow & reveal in the browser option.

Help please!? I’d like the down arrow in each of the source clips in the browser.

Cheers,
