Can I set default columns for event browser?

Whenever I import a clip I get columns in the event browser that I do not need and have to manually turn off every time. E.g. 360 Mode and Stereoscopic Mode.

Is there somewhere to define a default list of displayed columns?

Thanks in advance,
Paul

I think I can do this by creating a Template in Final Cut Pro Manager from Arctic Whiteness.

Is there a native FCPX way?

Control click anywhere in the top menu bar (with Name, Start, etc.) and you'll get options for selecting what you want. I'm not sure that these always stick when relaunching FCPX, but usually they seem to.

I am used to right click and then select. Didn't think that Control+click makes a sticky selection. Thanks for that, I'll have to try it.

FCPX has had this super annoying behavior of forcing the factory default column layout on us for several versions now. You rarely will see, if ever, the column layout be the way it was the last time you were working in FCPX. Every launch resets that. Drives me insane. And no, you can not change it.

Control-click and right-click are the exact same thing.

Glad to know I'm not the only one. But sad to know after so many years and revisions that this is still an issue. I hate having to re-select columns every time I open the software.

And has anyone actially USED that 360º mode column? Yes, the default setting is idocy. The fastest thing is to do is hit the last selection on the list, Hide All Columns, then check off the ones you want. It's maddening to have to do this just like it is having to turn Title/Safe overlays on every time you open the same project. It's like the coders only code without knowing what's useful in the software.

I'm guessing there's still no way to do this?

Nope, not yet, probably never will. You'd think being able to save a custom preset would be common sense to do from day one.
