I apologise in advance if this is old news ( I'n very new to RC), but I have found a mode which is not referred to in the tutorials.-
If I am in the Library and I place the cursor over a shot and press 'esc' I go to a player view which shows that shot only - the range function is active by default. If I cancel range I can see the 'absolute frame' numbers of this shot - which greatly simplifies finding the correct values to type in as shot 'in and out points' if you want to trim -(which will save hours on exports)
In the absence of documentation I am probably going about this a dumb way, but RC doesn't seem to make it easy for you just to mark an IO for each shot.
Am I missing something - as the only way I can find to do this is typing the frame numbers in.
As far as I can see the marks relate to the timeline not a shot (and the in and out symbols are opposite to the the rest of the world - is there a reason?) - And while I'm on the subject why do new shots get inserted to the start rather than the end of the timeline? - again the logic seems opposite to the norm.
All comments are in a 'positive' spirit - what a great application to have access to for free - , but it really does need a manual - once I've fully got my head round it I'd gladly contribute.
