media set always defaults to set 1 when adding a new layer
Posted: Mon Aug 21, 2006 11:40 pm
Is it only me, or does this get to you too & if so is there a way around it which one of you guys/gals knows about please?
Say I have just added a clip from media set 3 to a layer and decide to add another new layer,
the media set immediately defaults back to 1 which probably means I have to click back to media set 3 which is where my focus was in order to choose a media to load -
What I would like is for focus to stay on media set 3 either until I choose or until I click on an 'exisiting' layer when it might do what it mostly (not always) does and go to the media set where that layers particular clip is located.
I notice how this irritates - in a small but perfectly formed way - and I keep forgetting to mention it as a possible alteration for some release or other.
If you know better & there is a way around it which I am oblivious to please let me know;
Missing it is entirely possible - missing the blindingly obvious is my forte sometimes!!!
regards
