I have a hard time believing that a "64 bit application built from the ground up with modern foundations and leveraging all processors and unlimited memory" still has a 'Where's Waldo' playhead that scrolls off the screen when it gets to the end of the Timeline. A Scrolling Timeline, stationary playhead (and paging) option where the Timeline scrolls behind a stationary Playhead. I don't want a skeletal FCP that needs a hundred helper apps to be considered professional or fully functional. This is a list for native features for FCP not a list for 3rd party plugins, add ons, workarounds or hacks. The Final Cut Pro Team have seen it and have brought it to their meetings. I get inquiries that ask if Apple has seen this list. This is a curated list of suggestions for improving FCP and includes repeated user requests I've heard about online and email requests that I have received. Let's hope the FCP development glacier melts and we get full feature updates like we did with FCP 10.0 through 10.4 and that other modern NLEs acomplish. Especially compared to the likes of Davinci Resolve which faces all of the same challenges FCP gushers like to put foward as excuses. The current state of Final Cut devlopment has been glacial for the last four years. It took 11 + years to get industry standard dupe detection along with 11+ years of excuses why it wasn't implemented. No modern NLE should rest on its magnetic timeline laurels. Well that is just pure Bullsh*t! It needs many industry standard features that have been missing for going on 12 years. I've seen a few people say that FCP is fine the way it is and it doesn't need any new features. And I really like LumaFusion for editing on my iPhone and iPad. I did buy Resolve 17 Studio and like it as my second NLE. But Final Cut Pro is my favorite modern NLE. ![]() Each of these NLEs have their own strengths and weaknesses. Final Cut Pro is my NLE of choice after editing with and teaching FCP for over 20 years. ![]()
