"Edit had no effect" FCE


i'm busily putting slideshow video client , keep running pop when trying insert or superimpose image canvas. i've never seen message until yesterday. it's not letting me make changes now. show me message.

how solve this? i've googled pop , see 1 thread site locking tracks, i've done. still pop window, "edit had no effect".

help!

btw, i'm using final cut express 4.0 on macbook pro 17" 6gb ram, 1 tb hd
 

this typically happen when video track you're trying apply superimpose operation "unpatched" on accident.

left of little "lock" icons in timeline window (on left portion of window), "v1/v1" track buttons. if these appear separated each other, click 1 of them , they'll re-patch. then, try superimpose again.

never use superimpose command because essentially, it's placing material on next track up. drag clip (or image) track want on.


locking track (by clicking little lock icon) bit different. prevent entire track being modified - in, can't move or adjust of clips.
