Speaking of the naming clips function, does anyone else find this to be a clumsy process?
I do a lot of speech VO work and find myself often renaming many small clips of audio.
Expected behavior: click "name field"- entire contents is highlighted, ready for text input to replace all current text.
Actual behavior: If current name is somewhat long or multiple words, clicking just places a cursor somewhere in the text string, or highlight one word or some variation of that. Invariable, I find I have to click, drag across all text ( sometimes in both directions) delete, then add new text.
Needless to say, across a time line of dozens of clips this turns tedious and clumsy.
Not a big issue if renaming is just an occasional thing. Productivity buster if you do a lot of it.
Does anyone know of a more expedient/efficient way of quickly renaming clips on the fly?
