[Walter Soyka] “While we’re on the subject of skimming and hover scrub, I think that the naming of these features really exhibits the difference in mindset between Apple and Adobe. “
Final Cut Pro 7 and earlier had this option also… but for some reason in FCPX its not Pro.
[Walter Soyka] “”Skimming” is a simplified, accessible name which gives the gist of the feature without any other detail, while “hover scrub” combines two technical terms to describe precisely what the feature does and how to use it. It’s interesting to see both companies executing their philosophies, even in relatively minor details like this.”
I would say the simplified way is the better way, but does this really separate what is pro or not or am I just missing the point that you are just finding the terminology interesting?
Yeah the shortcut does rock for that setup. I really dig it also!
