Gang Importing of Clip Selects

As I continue my migration from FCP 7 to X I have lots of questions so here is my current query...

Is there a way that I can gang import clip selects?

As I import from my 5DMk3 (with the card in a reader) I see that I can select all the clips and import them with one click.

I also see that I can select a play range from 1 clip and import that.

How do I select a bunch of clips, each with a different play range, and import them all at once...like the EOS plug in in FCP 7....Or can I?

Doing it one clip at t a time is a real PITA.

Gracias in advance...

You can't select portions of multiple clips and import them. Not sure why it's such a PITA. You mark a selection however you prefer and press Return Return, and move on to next one.

If you're naming them first, it's slower.

Tom thanks for the clarification.

I guess it's a PITA because I have to hit the import button or hit return 50 times as opposed to once.

I suppose I just got so used to the workflow on the EOS plug in's gang or batch importing I found myself thinking why is Apple adding the extra step.

Plus I could do all of my I/O selections hit import or drag to the window and walk away.

Anyway...lot of other nice improvements in FCPX offset this relatively minor issue.

Hitting return twice instead of once is that big of a deal?
