Stopping clips from moving along the timeline.....

Hiya
Doing quite well with FCE. One thing I haven't worked out is how to 'lock' things in the timeline. eg: if I delete something or change the length then everything else shifts along the timeline.
Please help!

There are two types of DELETE in FCE/FCP: 'ripple' and 'lift.'
A lift delete can be performed using the {delete} key on a standard keyboard (aka as backspace delete). This is the key just below the F11 and F12 keys. A lift delete will delete the selected clip without causing the other clips on the Timeline to shift.
A ripple delete can be performed using the {del} key (aka forward delete). This key is two keys below the F13 key (above the left arrow key) on a standard keyboard. The ripple delete will delete the selected clip and shift clips other clips on the Timeline to fill the gap.

  • Stopping tab from moving to the next focus component

    I have a single TextInput field in my component and I want to
    stop the tab key from advancing the focus when I have an error in
    the field. I have tried using setFocus() and that seems to do it
    although I lose the caret in the text input field. Also when I tab
    I notice that even though I am telling the component that the next
    focus is the TextInput field it still goes to the Internet Explorer
    address bar. Any ideas?

    Append the system's line separator usingjava.lang.System.getProperty( "line.separator" );Then the added line will be placed as you've wanted. Code will be written like below:yourTextArea.append( System.getProperty( "line.separator" ) );
    yourTextArea.append( yourStringToAppend );Hope it helps.

  • How do you prevent a clip from moving to the front when clicking on it?

    I really don't understand why, but for some reason whenever you click on a clip in Audition CS6's mutitrack editor, it automatically moves in front of all other clips on it's track. This is extremely annoying behavior if you're working on a track with more than two overlapping clips, and there doesn't seem to be any way to undo the move after it happens. Does anyone know of a way to disable this behavior? I've looked all over the place, but haven't been able to find one.

    Fair enough, but I still say having a track be brought to the top by selecting it makes no sense. It creates the potential for you to screw up the arangement of a track without realizing it, and I think the fact that Audition doesn't even allow the action to be reversed by the undo button should be considered a bug. I've never used another audio editor that behaved this way, including earlier versions of Audition. Why not just have a send to front button in the right click menu for when you actually do want to send the track to the front? Also, as opposed to only having a single "send to back" button in the right click menu, there should really be submenu that says "send behind" and then has a list of tracks you can send the current track behind if you hover over it.

  • Changing a clip's speed in the timeline...

    I tried searching for this and looking around in the preferences but couldn't find anything.
    When I change a clip's speed in the timeline, how do stop FCP from shifting all the other clips that follow on the timeline?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Warren. I"m not sure if there is an easy way to undo this, but one thing you can do is just copy the clip into a new sequence, make the speed change and then paste it back into place in the original sequence. If you're slowing it down, you'll have to shrink the duration of the clip some to make it fit in its original location.

  • How do I stop firefox from automatically placing the cursor in a textbox?

    How do I stop Firefox from automatically placing the cursor in a text box? On certain pages such as Google.com the cursor will be moved to the search text box automatically after a couple seconds from the page loading. So I'll be typing in the address bar or something and then half of what I am typing in the address bar becomes cut off and starts being entered in the Google.com text box for search. The same happens on Facebook.com and the cursor is automatically moved to the Status Update text box. I assume this is a built in "feature" of the web page, but it's damn annoying. Especially when I start typing in my status update box on Facebook before the page completely loads and then halfway through typing (once the page is done loading) my cursor is moved to the starting position of the text area and my text is cut off.
    Just the be clear the actual mouse pointer isn't being moved, just the prompt for entering text.
    How can this be stopped?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Started since I can remember

    This problem has grown worse over the last couple of years. I use Firefox on Mac and Windows. I consider this problem to be a bug. Here's why: Event Driven interfaces, e.g., OSX and Windows, are never supposed to change typing-cursor focus WHILE SOMEONE'S TYPING!!!
    Firefox allows websites to change focus WHILE USERS TYPE!
    Hey, sorry for the caps, but I haven't used those for awhile and that's kind of fun. But really, more and more websites steal typing-cursor focus WHILE USERS TYPE.
    Efff them, but really, Eff Firefox for allowing this.
    It's almost like a symptom of our hyper scattered age where our attention jumps here and there.
    But really... I love Firefox, some of my best friends are Firefox, they're good people, don't get me wrong, but damn it, WHEN SOMEONE IS TYPING THE UNASSAILABLE RULE OF EVENT DRIVEN DESIGN IS NOTHING ELSE SHOULD CHANGE FOCUS WHILE SOMEONE IS TYPING!!!!
    FIX THIS PLEASE.
    Oh, I just ran out of capital letters. :) :) :)

  • I have put several clips with transitions into the timeline in final cut pro. There are two clips which are followed by transitions which do not play at the right speed. It is extremely frustrating, can anyone help?

    I have put several clips with transitions into the timeline in final cut pro X. There are two separate clips which are followed by transitions which do not play at the right speed. I'm at a loss as to why this is happening - any thoughts/help?

    The two HD clips were purchased from itunes (MPEG - 4) and converted to .mov for use in Final Cut Pro. Project properties - 720p HD 1280x720 (60p)
    Is this enough information?

  • Moving Around the Timeline

    Hi,
    Just a quick question about moving around the timeline. I'm using the up and down arrow keys to jump between cuts, but for some reason I can jump back beween cuts, but when clips are stepped up it doesn't seem to let me jump forward to the next edit.(I'm on the FCP keyboard config)
    Also, to jump forward the begining, or back to the end I'm supposed to use the home/end key. does anyone know what this is on a MacBook Pro keyboard?
    Thx

    I'm using the up and down arrow keys to jump between cuts, but for some reason I can jump back beween cuts, but when clips are stepped up it doesn't seem to let me jump forward to the next edit.
    I assume you're referring to when you have more than one track with clips on them. In that case, you need to be mindful of which tracks are targeted; that controls which tracks are subject to the Next/Previous Edit commands.
    For example:
    Any track that isn't targeted will be ignored by the Next/Previous Edit commands. Just click the header "button" to enable or disable a track. Track targeting affects many other operations in Premiere Pro--for example, adding edits or applying transitions. Check out this Help document page for some more info: Targeting tracks
    Not sure about the MBP keyboard question, but a Google search for such turned up this: Home and End Keys on the Macbook Pro

    You should take it to an Apple store or an AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) Carefully inspect the hinge joint and make sure there is no debris that you can see, you can try carefully sliding some sticky tape thru the joint to clear any loose stuff out. But this sounds like there might be more going on here, and the hinge is something that you do not want to fool with.

    How do I stop programs from running in the background?  In the old system you could delete them.

    Most of those apps aren't running in the background, but what you are asking is how to close the apps.
    To close an app in iOS 7, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.

  • Please make a permanent solution to stop applications from running in the background

    'multitasking' is not a very usefull invention and should have a permanent solution, to stop applications from running in the background instead of having to go in and exit them. the only thing that is usefull is to go in and click on next song under music, everything else running in the background can just be exited as far as im concerned, its not like i have 400 applications, and i have to go searching through my phone to find them

    Push twice on the Home button to display running apps. Press on one and hold until they wiggle. Tap on the circled red "x" to remove each from the background. Note that backgrounded apps are not actually running until you access them except for those that have been written to run concurrently such as Music, which can continue playing while you are using other apps.
