Actually, in addition to the Option key, Ctrl and Shift are not required to set the poster frame – only Ctrl is…

Thanks for the tip! Coming from iMovie, where thumbnails are shown by default, I thought FCP simply didn’t have this capability, and that FCP users were savants, able to remember all their clips by sequence number. I wonder why FCP doesn’t show thumbnails by default–they seem so obviously useful for most circumstances.

[...] Creative Workflow Hacks offers a handy tip on scrubbing thumbnails of your media in Final Cut Pro’s Browser window. Having edited a short last weekend that utilized a large number of similarly named clips, I see this as an excellent tip. Hopefully it will make your life easier as well. [...]

Great tip. Also if you hold down the SHIFT and CONTROL keys while you scrub the frame you stop on will become the new still frame – good for setting all your clips to show the most visually descriptive frame of the shot.
