Alright - I've looked around, I've checked the manual, and I'm out of ideas.
This is the most ridiculous question but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

How can I toggle the 'Primary In' settings on and off?

The secondaries includes an 'enable' tab that I can check on and off to see what I'm doing - but I can't find anything similar for my primary changes. Seems like it should be obvious, but I'm not seeing it.

Thanks to anyone that can clear this up for me.
 
another tip, if you havent already found it is to toggle between playing back the entire timeline or just looping one shot, go to menu TIMELINE > TOGGLE PLAYBACK MODE. it's not very descriptive, but that what it does.
 
Ahhhh - you're a godsend, Zak.
Thanks.

CONTROL-G did the trick.

And I had no idea on the TOGGLE PLAYBACK MODE setting.
That was another annoyance I was wililng to live with.

I guess these are the perils of trying to learn something as you go.
Hopefully I'll be able to pick up Noah's DVD soon and get an actual primer on how to use this thing. I have to say though, so far I'm really impressed with this program.
 
Alright - here's another newbish question for you.
Again - read the manual and as far as I can tell I'm doing everything right, but for some reason none of my changes in the 'Geometry' room are carrying over to FCP.

Everything looks fine in Color - then I render, 'Send To' FCP - and my sequence opens up wiht the CC'd footage, but none of the motion tab changes I made in the geometry room of Color.

Hmmmmm
 
i don't know this one. i searched on creative cow, found a few people who also experienced this... but no solutions.

I have not tried any reframing in Color yet so i can't verify. but i'll look into it when i get back to the office.
 
Yeah I did some searching on the Apple forums and found some people complaining about the same thing - but no solutions.

Not the end of the world, I can do it in FCP - just not as quickly.
