    Hi Brad! Thanks for your videos. How is the name of the shortcut with the tilde? I'm italian and the italian keybord doesn't have tilde. In the same position i have "Select Left and Right Edges" and the possibility to combine it with "option" to trim to selection. I really need that trick to trim without moving audio!

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  Год назад

      You can actually assign the tilde key to a different keyboard shortcut. I talk about how to do it on this video: ruclips.net/video/JonW5Zem3ZA/видео.html
      Hope that helps! 😄👍🏼

    • @goppanza

      Yeeeeah, it helps! "Override Connections" In italian keyboard seems to be something like the apostrophe, but it doesn't work and I can't understand what is the right key, so i found the name of the command in your video and reassigned a shortcut . Thank you very much!!!

    hi. i'm using a turkish keyboard and there is no tilde hey on the keyboard. (some people mention same issue on german keyboard.) i tried to find the solition about this. the shurtcut name is "override connections". remap it to your convenience in the command editor. thaks for the video:D

      It might not be compatible with your version of FCP. I'd recommend watching my How to Fix the RED “Plugin Not Working” Error video: ruclips.net/video/HHXw2h_Fiq4/видео.html That will probably help you to solve the problem.

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  2 года назад +1

      I've kind of touched on it in other videos before. You could do a few things. You could apply your color grade to an adjustment layer that you put on top of all your clips. Or you could grade one clip and hit Cmd C to copy the effects, select all of the other clips and hit Cmd Shift V to paste those attributes to other clips. Hope that helps! 😄🤞🏼

    The Tilde Key doesn't exist for AZERTY French keyboard (I can create the character by pressing option + N : ~ ... that's all)
    I've tried to find "override connections" in the command editor but I don't know where to find it (as my FCPX is in French).
    Even if I use the search tool, "override connections" or "~", there is nothing showing-up.
    Hope your future video will help your fellow French guys
    The only solution found is a to tinker a little bit. I have to lift the main clip from Storyline so the connections are transferred to the Blank clip 😩

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  2 года назад +1

      Ah that’s quite a tricky one 😂 The only thing I can think of trying is to temporarily change your Mac’s language to English, find the “override connections” command, assign a custom key and then back to French.
      I hope that helps 😆🤞🏼

      ​@@Brad_Westthanks. I did that.
      So it appears that Frenchies have to use COMMAND < .
      “override connections” is called "Remplacer les connexions" but what is weird is that to quit this mod, I have to click outside FCPX (like clicking on the batterie icon on the top right corner) 🤨

      If you are having issues with the playhead, I would suggest deleting FCP preferences and rebooting FCP, or even reinstalling it. That sounds like a weird bug.

    • @Brad_West
      @Brad_West  2 года назад +1

      That’s an odd one. I haven’t experienced that. Have you tried activating the position tool using the shortcut P and then dragging that clip from your browser into the new angle? Does it still do it?

      Yeah that’s weird. Bit of a pain in the ass. Does it make a difference if you drop it in at the end of the multicam, and then clicking and dragging it to where you want it to be, or does it do the same thing?

      Haha 😆 I’ve discovered that different keyboard in different regions don’t have the tilde key. I haven’t found an alternative but if you go into your keyboard shortcut preferences in FCP you can assign a custom shortcut to the “override clip connections” command. You can assign any key to that and you will have the same functionality. Hope that helps 😄🤞🏼
