Revealing a Clip’s Media File in the Finder

There are many situations in which you want to directly access a clip’s media file in the
Finder. In these cases, you can use the Reveal in Finder command.

To reveal a clip’s media file in the Finder:

1

Select a clip in a sequence or in the Browser.

2

Do one of the following:

 Choose View > Reveal in Finder.
 Control-click the clip and choose Reveal in Finder from the shortcut menu.

The Finder becomes the frontmost application, and the clip’s media file is selected in a
Finder window.

You can also rename a clip’s media file to match the clip name, or rename a clip to
match its media file. For more information, see Volume IV, Chapter 6, “Reconnecting
Clips and Offline Media.”
