Using the Range Selection tool in Final Cut Pro
The Range selection tool is really an organic form of keyframing. Once you have used the Range Selection tool to highlight a portion of a clip or clips, you can apply a filter for example to the selected range, and leave the rest of the clip unaltered.
First select the Range selection tool by either clicking it in the tool
palette, or pressing ggg. Once activated left click and drag over the
area you wish to select of a clip in the timeline. While dragging you
will see a two up display in the Canvas that shows the frame the range
starts and ends at. The highlighted area can now have a filter applied
to it.
Applying a filter will only affect the selected range. The range can be
seen within the filters tab, and can also be both trimmed and slid
within the filters tab.
This function can be useful when the duration of an effect is known, but not necessarily where on the clip it will be used.
