Shortcut buttons display the icon of the command they perform, providing you with a
visual cue to their function. In addition, when you move the pointer over a shortcut
button, a tooltip for the specified command appears.
Note: Shortcut buttons are automatically saved when you quit Final Cut Express. They
are not saved per project.
Adding Shortcut Buttons to a Button Bar
Button bars that you set up are automatically saved when you quit the application and
restored when you open it again. You can rearrange, copy, and drag shortcut buttons
to further customize the button bar in each window.
Note: You can add any number of shortcut buttons to the button bar; however, excess
buttons may not be visible within the window.
To create a shortcut button in the button bar of a window:
1 Make sure the window you want to add the shortcut button to is displayed. If you’re
adding a shortcut button to the Tool Bench window, make sure the tab of the feature
you want is in front.
2 Choose Tools > Button List.
The Button List window appears.
3 Drag an icon from the Button List window to the window where you want the shortcut
button to appear.
