• Adjustment to May scheduled meeting

      0 comments

    Due to Autodesk availability of their top talent, and my desire to bring the best to the DC metro area, we are adjusting the “Smoke on a Mac” meeting to another month. Tentatively, that new date will be 10 August.
    Once I close on the swap, check the EVENT calendar in the LEFT sidebar on this page for the most current updates for our May event.

    I have contacted our August speaker to consider swapping dates, so stay tuned…

    Respectfully,

    Rodney Mitchell
    President and Apple Ambassador

    P.S: Don’t forget to read the SUPERMAG… we are in it this year!!!

    Tip of the Day!

    Final Cut Pro – Copying and Pasting Clips


    Where clips go depends upon where they come from.

    update

    If you copy a clip in the Viewer and paste it into the Timeline, the Patch Panel on the left side of the Timeline controls which track the clip goes to.

    If you copy a clip on the Timeline and paste it back into the Timeline, FCP pastes it to the same track from which it was copied. To paste it to a different track, change the Auto-Select buttons. The clip now goes to the lowest numbered track who’s Auto-Select button is dark.
