Favoriting/Subclipping with Long Clips in Timeline in FCPX I'm editing a project where I have 5 very long clips.  I'm going through, favorite-ing the good portions ("subclipping" per se) and then organizing my clips from those subclips.

A problem I'm running into however, is that I would like to have finer control over my in and out points, so I would like to open my long clips in the timeline, so I can use the scrubber over a larger area.  But when the clip is "opened in timeline" I can't favorite portions of it.

Is there any workaround to this?  Or a different solution to my problem?
Your event browser needs to be in filmstrip view for this to work. Press [&#8997;&#x2318;1]  Then you can Zoom in [&#x2318;+] or out [&#x2318;-] to whatever granularity you like.
