Scissors Tool

Hi

Exactly as Tom writes - Siccor is Racor-blade in FinalCut.

BUT

You would gain lot's to get into using in- resp. out-points as FinalCut doesn't work
like iMovie. So if You want to apply transitions - FinalCut needs "handles" = unused material
before and after clip to be viewed . Not as in iMovie where transition borrow material
from the clip in TimeLine.

So by cuting up material - all's well as long as You don't apply transitions - but
gets rather wered when done to precision sized clips.

I am having a problem with this feature too. If I want to split a clip or remove an unwanted section in the middle of a clip I can do it with the blade tool but both sections still retain the same clip name and I cannot work out how to edit each section independently. I would like to set in and out points in each section of the clip and cannot figure how to do that.

I think you need to start a new thread rather than jump in here. Seems like you have two separate problems and I'm not clear what they are. Rather than tells us what you're doing in this instance, tell us what you're trying to accomplish and we can tell how or if it can be done in this application.

Blade tool B or the shortcut Control-V.

Thanks - I am new to this. I will start a new thread
