Q: Changing Project Length in FCP X

Hello, everyone!I have spent a while trying to find a way to change the project length in FCP X, and I can't find any reference anywhere on how to do that?

 

My project is based on a PSD file which I imported. it created a project length of 1 minute. How can I change that?

 

It would seem an easy thing to do, but I am stumped at the moment....

 

Thanks

    TThe project can be any length, but it doesn't sound as if you've made a project. It sounds as if you open the PSD file into the timeline. That's not a project. You're editing into the clip container. Cmd-N makes a new project.

    Well!

     

    Thank you. I thought I HAD made a project and put my PSD file into that. It is now obvious that I didn't do that.

     

    Made a new project and it's all fine. Thank you for your quick reply!!

     

    All the best,
