Re: [Avid-L2] FR:Subclip behavior was: New FCP? Hmmm.....

You are given a polite message "Match to Subclip or Master Clip"?. If you choose Subclip, you get the last frame of the Subclip.

For all I know, if you match to material you've trimmed in beyond the original subclip boundaries, you might well still match back to the sub, but ironically enough, I'm on FCP right now and it's not easy to check. I am, however, pretty sure that no matter how much extra media you trim in, the original name of the subclip stays the same in your sequence, and the subclip's original TC start and end remain the same in the bin. This is exactly what I want. Like you, I find he subclip names in the sequence to be helpful, and I want to keep them. I just want to be able to trim, dammit!
