site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: pro-apps-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hi Rainer Just woke up to the new XML docs so haven't had time to look yet …. but does the XML import have an "update" function? If so then that should allow changes to be made through 3rd party XML manipulation without breaking anything.

I note there hasn't been any input on it at all, but it is seriously impacting several of our plugins that have custom (external) UIs. No, no update on that one. But give it a try. Given that we fixed a similar problem for custom parameters, it's possible we fixed it for regular parameters in the process.

FCP X XML
by Rainer Standke 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: pro-apps-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hello all, early in the new doc describing FCP X XML there is this: "Important: FCPXML Version 1.0 describes certain project data that is useful for exchanging with other applications. It does not describe all possible data, and therefore is not a substitute for the native project file when archiving a project or moving a complete project from one system to another." This sounds like workflows that rely on getting a sequence XML out of FCP, manipulating the XML, and finally putting the XML back into FCP will potentially break things, as in: the returned sequence will drop things that where in it in the first place. Is that correct? Also, what is it that gets lost? Thanks, Rainer _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
