FCPX: Is there a way to show which clips in the browser exist in the currently open project?

I have many clips (1000+) in my event for a travel/destinations style video. I edit many of these on a regular basis, and I am finding it very difficult to keep track of which clips I have already used in my project timeline. Is there a way to set the project browser to display or filter unused clips? Or am I able to set up a smart collection to achieve a similar effect?

First off Tom, Wow.  You are the best.  Many thanks.  Maybe I need to find a new tread for this but here goes.  I'm scared to upgrade!!!!  Sitting here with 3 external hard drives all with footage that I will use or have used all ready for parts of my final video.  Reading about upgrades and libraries is frightening.  Could I get get myself in trouble trying to upgrade midstream?  Other thread I should be swithing over to?
Thanks
Mark

    Select one and click cmd-A which selects them all.
    Then click the import button if it hasn't started already.

  • Is there a way to show two angles at the same time in the final edit rather than switch between them with Multicam?

    Can I show two angles at the same time in the final edit rather than alternate with Multicam?

    Stack two clips on top of each other and reduce the sizes. I think that's what you want.

  • Is there a way to know which Ethernet port will be used when running TCP Open?

    Hello.
    I have several Ethernet ports in my computer, and I am trying to write a VI that sends data from one port to the other (for debugging an issue).  I was planning on using the TCP Open and other TCP VIs, but the TCP Open does not seem to have an input to tell it which local Ethernet port I want to use.
    So, is it possible to specify which Ethernet port you want your TCP connection to be open on?  How about UDP?
    Thanks,
    AlejandroZ

    The TCP Open does have inputs for specifying both local and remote ports.

  • Need help with a calculated column - is there any way to reference a value in the current row?

    Hey guys,
    I'm a bit of a DAX newbie, and I'm running into a block. I'm creating a Power View report about IT tickets. We are going to be creating a cube to automate the data soon, I'm currently working with a flat Excel Data Table of data to demonstrate the Power
    View reporting capabilities to the team. I need the default display to show the top 4-5 items basked on the Ticket Count. The three applicable columns I'm using are the TicketID, the ContactReason, and the AssetCategory - all three are
    text. One slide will show the top five Contact Reasons by Ticket Count, and the other will show the top five Categories by Ticket Count. The users will see this default view, but will be able to change it to see differently ranked items or can clear the
    ranking slicer altogether.
    What I've accomplished so far is to create the Calculated Field [Ticket Count] = COUNTA(Table1[TicketID])
    And 2 other calculated fields:
    [Contact Rank] = RANKX(ALL(Table1[ContactReason]),[Ticket Count],,,DENSE)
    [Asset Rank] = RANKX(ALL(Table1[AssetCategory]),[Ticket Count],,,DENSE)
    If I were creating a Pivot Table, this would be great. These fields calculate everything the right way. The problem is, I need to have a Rank slicer on each slide and the calculation by itself contains no data - with no data, there's nothing to slice. I
    realized I need to actually have columns of data so I can create a slicer. I need each row of the table to show the same [Contact Rank] for every instance of a particular ContactReason (and the same for the [Asset Rank] and AssetCategory).
    The RANKX formulas pasted into the Calculated Column section only show a value of 1 - with no Pivot table summarizing the fields, it's counting each row's ticket once, giving every line the tied Rank of #1.
    I've solved the problem in Excel by creating 2 Pivot Tables on a separate sheet that have the data field and the calculated field for ContactRason and AssetCategory. Then on my Excel Data Table, I've added two columns that do a VLOOKUP and pull over a the
    Calculated Rank from each Pivot Table that match the ContactReason and AssetCategory fields. This works on the flat Excel Data Table now, but will not be a solutions when we start pulling the data from the cube (and there is no flat table).
    What I think I need is an Expression for the RANKX formula that can give me, for each row, the count of all of the times a ContactReason shows up in an entire column. There's only about 100,000 lines of data and each ContactReason or AssetCategory
    may show up several thousand times. But if I can get the expression to return that count, then the RANKX formula should work in the Column. If it wasn't a DAX formula, I'd use a COUNTIF and say 'Count the entire ContactReason column anytime it's equal to the
    ContactReason on THIS row', but in DAX I don't know how to reference a single value in a row. I've tried the CALCULATE() formula, but it seems like the filter needs a specific value, and doesn't work on a dynamic "cell" value.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! (I hope it all makes sense!)

    If I've understood you correctly then the ALLEXCEPT function may be what you're after and it could be applied in a similar way to the following...
    =
    RANKX(
    ALL(Table1),
    CALCULATE(
    COUNTROWS(table1),
    ALLEXCEPT(Table1, Table1[ContactReason])
    DENSE
    If this has missed the mark, would it be possible to clarify the requirement further?

    Michael Amadi

  • Is there a way to set which keychain item is used by default for a site/application?

    This question applies primarily to the keychain in Mavericks, but also the iCloud keychain and its use in iOS.
    There are several sites and services for which I have multiple logins that serve different purposes. Whether it's because they are business/personal accounts, or accounts that pertain to different functions, I have multiple logins for many sites/services I use daily, however, there is usually one primary account for each that I use for most purposes.
    What I would like to be able to do is set which of these logins appears by default. An example scenario might be if I have an "admin" account on a site, and a "dev" account that is used for testing purposes to Q/A the site from the perspective of a user who doesn't have administrative access. Most of my work happens under "admin" but whenever I go to the login page, the "dev" account prepopulates in the login form and I have to start typing admin and select that. It also does this on my iPhone, which is where this issue becomes very cumbersome, because there is no dropdown for me to select which credentials to use to autofill from. It appears to only allow autofill from whatever it sees as the first account to come up, and I can't seem to change that without deleting all the other keychain items that come up ahead of the one that I want. This kind of thing also poses a significant risk of accidents if, say, I have multiple payment methods saved and the one that comes up by default isn't my personal payment method, but a business account that's only meant to be used for business purchases. If that comes up first, if I don't replace it with my personal details, I might accidentally place a personal charge on a business account.
    So I really have 2 questions:
    1) Is there a way to set the priority order of which account populates a form by default from the keychain?
    2) When filling out credentials on iOS, an "autofill" button appears at the top of my keyboard, and I can begin typing in a field and it will show the autocomplete of the username that I am typing, but if I click autofill, it replaces it with the original credentials and not those of whatever I began typing in. If I click on the username it's autocompleting, it just clears the autocomplete. Is there some way to choose which username I'm autocompleting a form with?
    Thanks to anyone who has any ideas about a solution to this, and if there isn't, and if anyone at Apple is listening, in an ideal world, it would be like setting the priority order of known wifi networks, where you can drag your first choice to the top of the list.

    This sounds like the age old problem with keychain & Safari. I don't know of a way to solve it without using something like 1Password.
    The iOS app has it's own built in browser, so it has more control over what gets autofilled. Safari on OS X has an 1Password extension that handles account selection & autofill etc.
    Keychain is great in principle, but it quickly falls down when you need tight integration with many ID's & different use cases (work, home etc).
    I'd suggest you submit feedback to Apple about your thoughts. I did so years ago about this issue & this is how far we have come (back to the point where me.com synced passwords) :^)
    http://apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    Other tools like lastpass or keypassx may also help if you want to truly segregate password storage, but that doesn't fix autofill, the way around that issue is to dedicate one browser for work.

  • I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?

    I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?
    For example so that I can just press shift or another key to get the German character.

    Some may already exist, but you will have to learn them.  On my old system these can be found through keyviewer.app  For example, if I press option+s I get ß   Umlaut is a bit cumbersome as option+u then the actual letter.  It may be possible to bind a key to do this function, possibly through System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts
    I have old, old references for utilities that let you rebind keys to other functions, and you would have to see if they have modern equivalents.

  • Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice

    Is there any way to tell which formulas a particular cell is in, reverse look-up style? That is, is there a way to search somehow for which formulas in a sheet contain a particular cell in them without opening all of them up? If not, it would be nice.
    I'm fixing a Numbers document that I use in business daily that's become overly complicated, but while I want to clear/delete a number of cells in it to clean it up, I'm not sure if those cells are being used as source for other formulas on the page. I don't have to open all my formulas one by one to see if that cell is in there, do I?! That'd be a huge amount of work if I wanted to eliminate say 10 cells to search each formula on the page to see if it is in there or watch all the cells when I delete that cell to see if the numbers change! There's got to be an easier way! Right click doesn't seem to be any help.
    I don't want to damage my daily tool to make it cleaner and reorganize it. Is there really no way to do a reverse look-up of which formulas a particular cell is in?! Any time I click on a formula it highlights all the CELLS in that formula. Why can't I (or can I?) do the reverse and see all the FORMULAS that contain a particular cell?
    As a Numbers document ages or gets used frequently, you can sometimes forget which cells are tied to which formulas. You just look for the results of your formulas. Would be a nice thing to be able to do. Thoughts? Work-arounds? Answers?

    Answer would be no unless application provided such feature. Numbers does not as far as I know.
    Note that even if you have complete list of formulae used in a table, identifying formulae referencing any given cell is not simple.
    E.g., cell T20 is referenced not only in
    =T20+1
    but also in
    =SUM(T)
    =SUM(20:20)
    =SUM(S19:U22)
    =OFFSET(S1,19,1,1,1)
    =INDIRECT("T"&(10*2))
    In order to identify such formula, we have to actually evaluate it to see if it references the given cell. Especially such formula as OFFSET() and INDIRECT() may not be found by static parser because their parameters can be dynamic.
    Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings.

  • Is there a way to show 2 videos at once?

    Is there a way to show 2 videos at once?

    Welcome to the forum.
    What version of PrE are you using?
    What OS version are you running it on?
    The answers to those questions can be useful in giving you specific instructions.
    For general discussion, the answer is yes.
    Now, how do you want to display the two Videos, such as side-by-side, with each taking up 1/2 of the Frame, or in some other configuration?
    Basically, what you are talking about is PiP (Picture in Picture), but exactly how you will need to set things up will be dictated by the version of PrE, and then exactly how you want those two Videos to display.
    Good luck,
