Creating Custom Shortcut Buttons

Use FCE's button bar (Figure 3.19 ) to personalize your workspace by adding custom shortcut buttons to the button bars located at the top of the Viewer, Canvas, Browser, Timeline, and Voice Over tool windows. There's a button available for virtually every FCE command.

Figure 3.19. You can arrange shortcut buttons in the button bar found at the top of major program windows. You can group and color-code buttons and save and load custom button bar sets.

FCE lets you save multiple button bar toolsets, so you can easily switch to a button bar that complements your current editing task. You can:

Rearrange the button order.
Add spacers to organize your buttons into groups.
Change the color of a button.
Copy or move a button from one window to another.
Save custom button bars.
For all the details on managing custom buttons, see Chapter 5 of Apple's
Final Cut Express Help PDF.

To create a custom shortcut button:

Control-click the button bar area at the top of the window; then choose Show Button List from the shortcut menu (Figure 3.20 ).

Click the expansion triangle next to the name of the command's group to reveal the command in the list.

gain returns four Gain commands.
