Re: [FCP-L] putting image in a frame

Even tho this is GENERALLY the approach you want to take, if the
images don't have the same dimensions, then you're in for a treat,
since obviously pasting a scale attribute of e.g. 34% from a 2
megapixel image to a 4 megapixel image. In which case you only a)
resize all images BEFORE importing in e.g. Photoshop or b) resize all
individually from the timeline or c) yes, NEST them all first!

I to date (8 years) have never had any issues with nesting. At least
none as previously described. Some minor ones when nesting different
presets or with some codecs. Aside from the fact that if it in fact
DOES show problems, you'll have lost what? A full 15 seconds? After
which you could still switch to using the other options.

By the way, if you didn't know, FCP in fact has a "Storyboard"
function, should you need a different ordering than the alphabetical
one. Meaning you can "Storyboard" them in a different order and then
drag all to the timeline in that order. If needed, let me know... not
up to describing the process at this point. It's a tad convoluted. :-)
