Title 3D Missing
by Bugsy on Oct 5, 2007 at 10:29:00 pm

A funny thing happened while editing today: I scrolled down the Generator Pop-Up Menu in the Viewer and chose Title 3D from the Boris sub-menu to make a title. The next time I tried to do this the Boris sub-menu had dissappeared. I can copy and paste the Title 3D that I first created with no problem, so I know Title 3D didn't go away completely, but how do I get Title 3D to come back to the Generator Pop-Up Menu in the Viewer?

Thanks,
Bugsy

Standard G5 Dual 2.7 with FCS 1 (FCP 5.1.4).

The first thing to always try is to Quit FCP, Restart the Mac, Open your FCP project and try again.

Next:
THE FOLLOWING COMES FROM THE KEN STONE WEBSITE:
"Over 5,000 years ago Confucius wrote: 'If you are toiling away, you have changed nothing and FCP heads South on you, [starts behaving in strange ways] then it is time to trash your FCP Preferences.' "

Click the following link for instructions.

http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/trashing_fcp_prefs.html

A great way to do this is to use "FCP Rescue" a free Apple Script that will Trash the Preferences for you (and restore nearly all of your user settings afterward).
There are versions for FCP (Pro) & FCE (Express) and a new one for FCP 5.

Download these free Apple Scripts at

http://fcprescue.andersholck.com/
or
http://pistolerapost2.com/fcprescue/

This is one FCP tip that has helped in solving hundreds of "odd" problems.
