In-Depth Information
You can create as many bins as you like. And you can also store bins within
bins. Simply drag a bin over another bin and release your mouse button. The
result is a bin stored within a bin.
Items can be moved from one bin to another by highlighting and dragging.
Should you wish to move an item from within a bin back to the Browser,
you must double click the bin to open it as a floating window and then drag the
item or items out of the bin and into the Browser where they will be positioned.
If you want to delete either a clip or a bin highlight the item and press the
delete key. Note that the items are only deleted from the Browser and not from
your hard drive. Everything inside of Final Cut Pro works by referencing to the
original files which exist in the scratch disk folder/s which you set up earlier.
Original clips remain stored on the hard disk of your Mac unless you actually go
into the hard drive, remove the items and then place them in the trash on the
dock. By emptying the trash the items are then deleted.
Working in Icon View
By default Final Cut Pro will display clips in list mode, which means the clips are
represented by the names you give to them during the logging process. It can
be advantageous to view your clips as icons, or miniature pictures, particularly if
you are the sort of person who prefers to work visually. It can be easier to identify
a clip by a picture icon, rather than scrolling
through an alphabetical list of words.
To view clips in icon mode:
1
Click in the Browser to make the
Browser active.
2
Select the View menu at the top of the
screen and scroll down to Browser
Items.
3
Choose any of the
icon views - you will
notice it is possible
to view as Small,
