The name change was apparently to bring MC in line with Pro Tools (there are audio naming changes too). Now, if they could just align the NewsCutter commands and keyboard with Media Composer . . .

Obviously there are work-arounds you could use, like adding a clip color or a Comment whenever you added a marker... if your use of markers was rare enough that it would help you sort, then this wouldn't be too much of an inconvenience...

>I also have to say that I was shocked to see that locators had been changed to markers. When I started producing my latest Avid training series for Class on Demand, I'd even written a little blurb for FCP users stating that locators were the same as markers, but when I checked it in 6.0 before doing the training, I realized that the name had been changed! Obviously the sole reason was as a concession to FCP users. If they did it there, then there are a bunch of other things for which they should change the names.

>> Well, first off, because as of v6 there are no more locators. They are markers. But to really answer you question, probably because I have clips, but mostly sequences, that end up with dozens of locators. That would be a column out of control. I probably couldn't get it to sort to anything that's helpful. But the Locator/Marker window is helpful.
