Pen Tool Not Working In FinalCut 6 - OSX 10.6.8

Trashed preferences and still not working.
Forgive me if Im not posting this in the right place
but I just went round and round looking where to
post it.

Hey Ian - Yes - I also trashed the User Data Folder.
Hey Meg - I am trying to mark keyframes to adjust audio levels
and fade ins and outs on pic.
It doesn't work when I select it (nor does the pen delete etc.)
And doesn't work when I hit p.
All the other tools are working.
Thanks for your response.

  • Pen Tool not Working

    I started a new project, and I'm coming up on a deadline. I'm trying to adjust the audio, but the pen tool won't work. I've never had this problem before. Am I doing something stupid? Thanks for your help.

    I clicked on the pen tool, but it acts as a pointer. The pen tool box deepens, as it usually does. When I push P, on the key board, it still doesn't work. If I try to click on the audio, it highlights the clip. All the other tools work properly. I'm trying to adjust my audio levels. I went to trash preferences, but there is no FCX User Data folder. I know I have trashed preferences before, and it was there. I had to do an archive, and install, some time ago, if that's matters. Thanks.

  • Illustrator Cs2 Pen tool not working.. Help!!

    So I downloaded Ai cs2 the other day. Whenever I come to drawing polygons with the pen tool I set the fill to a colour and the stroke to none(/) just so i can produce block colour shapes without an outline. However When ive come to do it on cs2 the pen tool only lets me draw thin black lines... What am I doing wrong??

    THat's outline view.
    If you turn on preview mode, you should see that shape.
    But since it's not selected and the layer in the layer panel is closed, it's impossible to analyze this further.

  • Delete point (audio) pen tool not working

    I have for long easily used the delete point pen tool to lower or raise the decibel levels in the Timeline.
    Now, I can't. I don't understand what changed. I've tried to use it on films I've already used it on.
    All that happens is that the entire track gets 'selected' (turns to dark purple).
    I don't think I've changed any settings.
    I have FCE 4.0.1 (not HD).
    Flummoxed.

    Trash the FCE Preferences.
    This will assist with the job:

  • Pen tool not working in cs2

    Can you help? I cannot get my pen tool to make an active selection. It completes the path, but then when I try to inverse selection, it says no pixels were selected. I am new to this and very frustrated. It will let me select all, but the path area remains inactive. PLEASE HELP!!!!

    > It completes the path, but then when I try to inverse selection, it says no pixels were selected
    What Phos says is true, but since you say you are getting a selection I will assume you said pen but meant marquee tool or some other selection tool.
    Usually you will get the no pixels selected message when you are on a layer that does not have any content. You can see content, but it is on a different layer. Change to the layer with the content in the layer palette, and then you should be able to inverse your selection.

  • Pen tool not working the same

    I don't often use the Pen Tool as it is not needed but when I do, I do the same kind of thing and that is  draw around something so that I can use a filter on the selected area.
    I was able to create a shape within a shape so there is a hole and then apply my filter to it. However, when I try to do the same thing it is all weird!
    I create a shape and then put a shape inside, right click and choose Make Selection and the inner shape disappears leaving the larger outer shape.
    Does anyone know what might be causing this and how I can rectify it. Another weird thing is that when I use a filter it applys it outside of the selection, but this is not as annoying as the original issue.
    Any hwlp would be hugely appreciated!

    This occurs  when you use the quick mask to create a selection. Did you?

  • Why is my pen tool not working??

    Instead of drawing shapes, my pen tool only creates a new shape layer every time I click..
    What am I doing wrong??

    Yes, but that didn't seem to be what you were asking.
    If you have no layer selected, using the pen tool draws a new shape layer.
    If you have a layer selected, using the pen tool draws a mask (unless the layer is a shape layer, in which case it draws a new shape within the selected shape layer).
    Please, read the Help sections on shape layers and using the pen tools:

  • Creative cloud photoshop blur tool not work as it should be

    creative cloud photoshop blur tool not work as it should be !
    I go to blur a painting i am doing and it does not blur enough and I am using wacom Intuos 5 med pen tablet.
    and I even set the tablets sensitivty for pressure lower then default and still not getting the blur tool to do its job.
    I even adjusted the brush settings too to be able to blur even more on hard settings, still nothing.
    at least it not bluring enough to see any major changes.
    the only way i can blur anything is by using the fliters blur or the brushes ( mixer brush ) settings to mix colors and do it that way.
    (note) I will not post my systems specs sorry I don't do that and even the tech from adobe said I do not have to. and so I wont !
    just need advise not to share system specs.
    and thats what this forums board is for getting advice and read what others say about the issue at hand.
    it's not to post or share system specs  !!!
    so with that out of the way I need advice only please ?

    Hi,
    It might be your image is too big in terms of pixel dimensions for the blur tool to work well.
    If you zoom to 100% do you see any change when using the blur tool?
    What are the pixel dimensions of the image?
    (Image>Image Size)
    If you try a small image, does the blur tool work?
    What about when you use the mouse instead of your tablet?
    Can you at least tell us what operating system and version of photoshop your using?

  • Pen Pressure not working in Photoshop CS5.1

    Hello,
    I've looked at a lot of questions and answers concerning pen pressure in this forum, and I've tried a lot of things to fix this problem. I have a Genius MousePen 6x8 and use Photoshop CS5.1. It's been a while since I used my tablet, but it used to work before. I rebooted my computer a while ago, so I installed the new driver from the Genius website. The tablet is working fine, even the pen pressure, but for some reason it just won't work in Photoshop. I've tried to fix it by resetting the Photoshop settings by using the Ctrl+Shift+Alt, I've reset the brush tool, I've played around with the brush options and nothing has worked.
    Here is the image of the pen pressure working:
    And here is the image of the settings for the brush and the pen pressure not working:
    Thank you for your time!

    Your tablet driver isn't reporting pressure correctly.
    The knockoff tablet drivers usually need to be revised for each new version of Photoshop (and we have no idea why).
    Contact your tablet maker to see if they have updated drivers to fix their bugs.
