Jason, thanks. That's huge.

You're right about misconceptions, usual story I suppose. Having the Keyword Shortcuts pop up each time, drove me to thinking I had to use a shortcut, but duh, I see you just type anything into the top window. That's it...! What got me is that if you type in nine keywords on one clip, it fills in the nine presets for you, the top entry box disappears and when you go to a new clip the same 9 show up again.

From the FCPX manual:

'Assign keywords using keyboard shortcuts
To add keyword phrases to your clips using keyboard shortcuts, you must first assign keywords and keyword phrases to the keyboard shortcuts'.

I read too fast and it went into my brain as: 'To add keyword phrases to your clips you must first assign keywords and keyword phrases to the keyboard shortcuts'.


Also good to know that keeping manual finder-based backups of CurrentVersion.fcpevent and CurrentVersion.fcpproject will probably get you out of any trouble. Great info. Again thanks!.

Duncan.
