In FCP unable to open White Balance in Balance Color. How to do?
Hi friends, I want to use the quick White Balance feature that the FCP manual says can be accessed by doing the following:
1. Select a clip in the Final Cut Pro timeline or browser. (Done)
2. Position the playhead over the clip so that the clip’s video is displayed in the viewer. (Done)
3. To turn on the Balance Color correction, do one of the following:
•Choose Modify > Balance Color (or press Option-Command-B). (Done)
•Click the Enhancements pop-up menu below the viewer and choose Balance Color. (Done)
4. Note: When Balance Color is on, there’s a checkmark next to the menu item. (Yes, have the checkmark)
The automatic color balance correction is applied to the clip.
If the Video inspector isn’t already shown, do one of the following:
•Choose Window > Show in Workspace > Inspector (or press Command-4). (Done)
•Click the Inspector button on the right side of the toolbar. (?)
5. Click the pop-up menu in the Balance Color section of the Video inspector and choose
White Balance.
The pointer changes to an eyedropper.
I think I've done these, but I can't get the "Balance Color" section to appear or the "White Balance" option to appear.
I will appreciate your guidance on how to access them.
