Good evening guys and gals,

Quick question. In the timeline, how do you make the clips show their clip name?
I remember enabling this option but I can't find it at the moment.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you Spot,

The "Active Take Information In Events" option enabled it. The 5d update must have changed the option name or something.

No, the name didn't change, I was just going on memory instead of checking my work product. :-) Glad you found it in spite of my bad memory.

I pray that one day Sony might introduce an option to show a tooltip for the clip names to save having to zoom in to the timeline. This is one of the things I miss most from my Premiere days.

bubble,

Not a bad idea for those short events.

BTW, did you know that you can change the take name in the event properites, so that you can have multiple events from the same media, but name each one differently in the timeline?
