Hi.
I know it has been mentioned before but there still is this lingering problem.
I always have to select twice "Reveal in browser' to have FCX jump to the clip.
It's just annoying that this simple selection problem has not been solved.

Is it just me?

If the timeline is the active and something is targeted Shift-F one time is all you need.

That works.
For some reason I selected with the CTR key at one point and it jumped someplace else.

Thanks.

From the Timeline pane, Shift-F is "Reveal In Browser"
From theTimeline or the Browser, Shift-Command-R is "Reveal in Finder"

I'm glad I saw this thread, as shift-F does seem to work without problem. That does not change the fact that if you a right-click/ctrl-click and select "show in browser" it most often jumps to some seemingly random clip (but usually in the right event). Definitely a bug, would be great not to have it.

Exactly. I have been using the CTR key for some time.
Well. I'll just use the other shortcut.

Cheers.

Cannot reproduce this. There must be some other factor that makes it happen. A clip in the primary storyline, even if not targeted, on right-click produces the correct browser file. Can you post a screenshot of part of the project that shows where this happens?

This happens in the main timeline when right-clicking and selecting "find in browser" – but only for the first clip you select after you have the timeline selected. If you then right-click the same clip again OR any other clip in the timeline, the right-click will work like it should. To "reset" back to the buggy behaviour, you have to select some other keyword/event/folder than the one presently open, go back to the timeline, and voila, bug again.

I can select an event in a different library, right-click on a clip in the timeline and get taken to it in the right event.

Just tried it this morning on small project.
Using CTR it did go to the clip all but once.

On a big project. I always need to select twice using CTR.
If I use the shift+F shortcut it works well all the time.

I tried it on both collapsed and uncollapsed clips.
