| I've had bad luck with most still formats in FCP. It's pretty hostile to JPEGs and PNGs, IME.
Try TIF or TGA, which also support an alpha channel. TIF is what I use (when I have to.)
Pr is a LOT better at handling stills, except really large ones. On Jul 20, 2012, at 8:55 AM, Benny Christensen wrote: That has been my workaround, but it is annoying because I don't like to use PSDs in FCP. I usually like a flattened file for titles.

I know this isn't the Photoshop list, but since it is pretty integral to our workflow here goes.
I am having a couple of issues lately.
1) PNGs are not acting the same way they used to. I can't get the empty spaces to read as alpha holes in FCP. Is there a better format to use since PICT files are no longer an option.
2) Sometimes the program simply will not let me Save a file. The Save window pops up, but the buttons are not colored and won't react. In fact, at that point the program is completely locked up and I have to Force Quit.
Has anyone else seen these problems?
Thanks in advance.
