New 2024 Approved Cutting-Edge Editing 40 Final Cut Pro X Keyboard Shortcuts You Need
Cutting-Edge Editing: 40 Final Cut Pro X Keyboard Shortcuts You Need
Top 40 Keyboard Shortcuts for Final Cut Pro X
Benjamin Arango
Mar 27, 2024• Proven solutions
I confess I’m a keyboard shortcut junkie. Anything I can do to help me edit faster is a good thing, and nothing says “speed” like keyboard shortcuts. There are well over 600 menu options in FCP X, with hundreds of keyboard shortcuts. But, which ones are the best?
In this article, I share my Top 40 keyboard shortcuts. I use these beauties every day to help me get my projects done faster. Now, you can use them, too. Even better, I’ve categorized them to make them easier to find. Haven’t got FCPX yet? Get your 90-day free trial here.
(And, for those who take the time to count, you’ll discover this list actually includes 53 keyboard shortcuts. But using “Top 40” in the title seemed so much sexier than “Top 53.”)

Ways to Calculate Pixel Calculator Ratio
How to Calculate Pixel Calculator Ratio
An easy yet powerful editor
Numerous effects to choose from
Detailed tutorials provided by the official channel
Size, formats, and resolution… What are pixels exactly doing with it?
So let’s review some basics on pixel calculator ratio to create an easy life, your workflow more productive, and your photos of the ideal size for the intended purpose.
In this article
01 [What is Pixel Aspect Ratio?](#Part 1)
02 [How is Pixel Ratio Calculated?](#Part 2)
03 [Par (pixel Aspect Ratio) in Adobe Premiere Pro/Filmora?](#Part 3)
04 [Difference among Pixel Aspect Ratio, Display Aspect Ratio, and Storage Aspect Ratio](#Part 4)
05 [How Aspect Ratios Affect UI/UX Design?](#Part 5)
Part 1 What is Pixel Aspect Ratio?
A digital image is not a single non-dividable thing. You’ll see that your photo is like a mosaic formed by small tiles if you zoom in far enough, which are known as pixels in photography.
The amount of these pixels and the way they are divided are the two elements that you’re required to take into account to know more about the resolution and pixel calculator ratio.
The Pixel Aspect Ratio is simply the latest way of defining the length of one side of a pixel in context to the length of the other.
Let’s say the ratio is 1:1; each side of the pixel is the same length as the other, also known as a square in pixels.
If the ratio is 2:1, it means that one side is twice the length of the other.
NOTE: The ‘Aspect Ratio’ does not define the actual or exact length of the side of a pixel is, just its “relative” size of one side to the other. The actual length will depend on how much you shrink or stretch a photo when recreating it. But if the Pixel Calculator Ratio is 1:1, then the pixels will always be square irrespective of the size of that particular photo.
Part 2 How is Pixel Ratio Calculated?
You can use a pixel ratio calculator to calculate the pixels within a screen. So, we’d like to suggest a calculator by xwebtools.com.
Here, you can see tabs, namely the Common Ratios Ratio Width, Ratio Height, Pixels Width, and Pixels Height.
How it works:
This pixel ratio calculator converts pixel dimensions to aspect ratios. It is an online free tool that assists you in calculating the aspect ratio value of an object or a photo.
The conversion can be carried in both ways, aspect ratio to pixels and pixels to aspect ratio. This screen resolution calculator offers a powerful and simple tool that can convert the ratio of images to pixels resolution and pixels to ratio dimensions.
You need to provide Pixels Width and Pixels Height to calculate the aspect ratio; the aspect ratio will be automatically calculated.
You need to provide Ratio Height and Ratio Width to calculate pixel resolutions. Both the Pixels Width and Height will get automatically calculated.
Part 3 What is Par (pixel Aspect Ratio) in Adobe Premiere Pro/Filmora?
Pixel ratio: Adobe Premiere Pro
As we already discussed, an aspect ratio defines width to height. The still picture and video frames have a frame aspect ratio. The pixels that create the frame have a pixel aspect ratio (sometimes called PAR).
Different video recording standards have different aspect ratios. For instance, you record video for television in either a 16:9 or a 4:3 frame aspect ratio.
You set the frame and pixel aspect when you create a project in Adobe Premiere Pro. Once you set these ratios, you can’t change them for that project. However, you can edit the aspect ratio of a sequence. You can also use assets made with different aspect ratios in the project.
Premiere Pro automatically compensates for the pixel aspect ratio of source files.
If an asset still feels distorted, you can manually mention its pixel aspect ratio. But that isn’t very clear, especially for a beginner. This is why we recommend doing the following.
Pixel ratio: Wondershare Filmora
You need a converter or a video editor to change the aspect ratio permanently. Here we humbly recommend an excellent aspect ratio changer - Wondershare Filmora video editor, which helps you make 4:3, 9:16, 16:9, and 1:1 aspect ratio videos pretty quickly.
Wondershare Filmora
Get started easily with Filmora’s powerful performance, intuitive interface, and countless effects!
Try It Free Try It Free Try It Free Learn More >
Furthermore, you can conveniently share these videos on YouTube, Apple TV, Vimeo, and mobile devices.
Transform aspect ratio at the beginning interface
Wondershare Filmora Video Editor helps you change the project aspect ratio right after launching the video editor program.
If you click the drop-down menu, you will see the usual 16:9, 1:1, 9:16, 4:3, and 21:9 aspect ratios.
Unlike Adobe Premiere Pro, Wondershare Filmora offers you four more ways of setting aspect ratios efficiently.
Method 2: You can change the aspect ratio under Project Settings
Method 3: Change the aspect ratio of video with Auto-Reframe
Method 4: Change aspect ratio during Editing
Method 5: Change aspect ratio while Exporting
Thus, using the Wondershare Filmora along with the pixel ratio calculator makes a difference!
Part 4 Difference among Pixel Aspect Ratio, Display Aspect Ratio, and Storage Aspect Ratio
Although the image aspect ratio comes from its width and height, it also contains multiple subsets that help to define image proportions properly.
1 - Pixel aspect ratio
Pixel aspect ratio (PAR) is the proportion of the specific pixels within an image. They are generally square within the pixel aspect ratio of 1:1.
But sometimes, specific images are optimized for certain types of displays. And, they have rectangular pixels with an aspect ratio of 4:3 or similar.
2 - Display aspect ratio
The display aspect ratio (DAR) is the designers’ most frequent aspect ratio and gets generally synced with the general term.
As the name suggests, the display aspect ratio refers to the proportions of an image as it appears on different screens out there.
Some devices, such as televisions and cameras, have a fixed DAR for images to display nicely on these devices.
They need optimization for their specific or respective aspect ratio. For instance, a typical display aspect ratio for the widescreen video on a television screen or monitor screen is 16:9.
They appear distorted when images with different aspect ratios are presented on these devices. Digital SLR camera sensors also consist of a fixed display aspect ratio, which controls how pictures captured by the camera will be displayed and saved.
3 - Storage aspect ratio
Storage aspect ratio, commonly known as (SAR) is an aspect ratio formula that concerns specifically to encoded digital video files. SAR refers to the height and the width relationship in video frame size, and it is required to be consistent among all individual frames.
SAR x PAR = DAR for max widescreen videos in a usual used formula.
Part 1 Part 5: How Aspect Ratios Affect UI/UX Design?
Aspect ratios play a vital part in any project that consists of displaying and capturing photographs, videos, or other image-based files in an ideal manner. The camera’s fixed aspect ratio can considerably impact, especially for photographers.
And for videographers or anyone working with slideshows, animations, and other motion projects, the aspect ratio is a prominent element for correct display on mobile devices and widescreen.
But even in the environment of responsive web design, problems can arise, such as when an image is not adjustable for display without compromising its quality or content.
A small example is when you need a square image with a 1:1 aspect ratio to insert into a rectangular box on a web page. To accommodate varying image size requirements, proportions and size may need adjustment.
In an increasingly picture-driven digital world, videos and images that look even slightly out of the way add to a visitor’s negative impression of a site. Besides those forced into the wrong configurations can even interfere with a site’s usability.
Poorly proportioned user guide or product images video that’s too stretched to check clearly can affect both a visitor’s want and their ability to use the site. Developers, designers, and anyone working with images will need to know how aspect ratios work and manipulate them for the best visual effect.
Various pixel calculator ratios, both paid and free, have popped up on the web to streamline the process.

The amount of these pixels and the way they are divided are the two elements that you’re required to take into account to know more about the resolution and pixel calculator ratio.
The Pixel Aspect Ratio is simply the latest way of defining the length of one side of a pixel in context to the length of the other.
Let’s say the ratio is 1:1; each side of the pixel is the same length as the other, also known as a square in pixels.
If the ratio is 2:1, it means that one side is twice the length of the other.
NOTE: The ‘Aspect Ratio’ does not define the actual or exact length of the side of a pixel is, just its “relative” size of one side to the other. The actual length will depend on how much you shrink or stretch a photo when recreating it. But if the Pixel Calculator Ratio is 1:1, then the pixels will always be square irrespective of the size of that particular photo.
Part 2 How is Pixel Ratio Calculated?
You can use a pixel ratio calculator to calculate the pixels within a screen. So, we’d like to suggest a calculator by xwebtools.com.
Here, you can see tabs, namely the Common Ratios Ratio Width, Ratio Height, Pixels Width, and Pixels Height.
How it works:
This pixel ratio calculator converts pixel dimensions to aspect ratios. It is an online free tool that assists you in calculating the aspect ratio value of an object or a photo.
The conversion can be carried in both ways, aspect ratio to pixels and pixels to aspect ratio. This screen resolution calculator offers a powerful and simple tool that can convert the ratio of images to pixels resolution and pixels to ratio dimensions.
You need to provide Pixels Width and Pixels Height to calculate the aspect ratio; the aspect ratio will be automatically calculated.
You need to provide Ratio Height and Ratio Width to calculate pixel resolutions. Both the Pixels Width and Height will get automatically calculated.
Part 3 What is Par (pixel Aspect Ratio) in Adobe Premiere Pro/Filmora?
Pixel ratio: Adobe Premiere Pro
As we already discussed, an aspect ratio defines width to height. The still picture and video frames have a frame aspect ratio. The pixels that create the frame have a pixel aspect ratio (sometimes called PAR).
Different video recording standards have different aspect ratios. For instance, you record video for television in either a 16:9 or a 4:3 frame aspect ratio.
You set the frame and pixel aspect when you create a project in Adobe Premiere Pro. Once you set these ratios, you can’t change them for that project. However, you can edit the aspect ratio of a sequence. You can also use assets made with different aspect ratios in the project.
Premiere Pro automatically compensates for the pixel aspect ratio of source files.
If an asset still feels distorted, you can manually mention its pixel aspect ratio. But that isn’t very clear, especially for a beginner. This is why we recommend doing the following.
Pixel ratio: Wondershare Filmora
You need a converter or a video editor to change the aspect ratio permanently. Here we humbly recommend an excellent aspect ratio changer - Wondershare Filmora video editor, which helps you make 4:3, 9:16, 16:9, and 1:1 aspect ratio videos pretty quickly.
Wondershare Filmora
Get started easily with Filmora’s powerful performance, intuitive interface, and countless effects!

Furthermore, you can conveniently share these videos on YouTube, Apple TV, Vimeo, and mobile devices.
Transform aspect ratio at the beginning interface
Wondershare Filmora Video Editor helps you change the project aspect ratio right after launching the video editor program.
If you click the drop-down menu, you will see the usual 16:9, 1:1, 9:16, 4:3, and 21:9 aspect ratios.
Unlike Adobe Premiere Pro, Wondershare Filmora offers you four more ways of setting aspect ratios efficiently.
Method 2: You can change the aspect ratio under Project Settings
Method 3: Change the aspect ratio of video with Auto-Reframe
Method 4: Change aspect ratio during Editing
Method 5: Change aspect ratio while Exporting
Thus, using the Wondershare Filmora along with the pixel ratio calculator makes a difference!
Part 4 Difference among Pixel Aspect Ratio, Display Aspect Ratio, and Storage Aspect Ratio
Although the image aspect ratio comes from its width and height, it also contains multiple subsets that help to define image proportions properly.
1 - Pixel aspect ratio
Pixel aspect ratio (PAR) is the proportion of the specific pixels within an image. They are generally square within the pixel aspect ratio of 1:1.
But sometimes, specific images are optimized for certain types of displays. And, they have rectangular pixels with an aspect ratio of 4:3 or similar.
2 - Display aspect ratio
The display aspect ratio (DAR) is the designers’ most frequent aspect ratio and gets generally synced with the general term.
As the name suggests, the display aspect ratio refers to the proportions of an image as it appears on different screens out there.
Some devices, such as televisions and cameras, have a fixed DAR for images to display nicely on these devices.
They need optimization for their specific or respective aspect ratio. For instance, a typical display aspect ratio for the widescreen video on a television screen or monitor screen is 16:9.
They appear distorted when images with different aspect ratios are presented on these devices. Digital SLR camera sensors also consist of a fixed display aspect ratio, which controls how pictures captured by the camera will be displayed and saved.
3 - Storage aspect ratio
Storage aspect ratio, commonly known as (SAR) is an aspect ratio formula that concerns specifically to encoded digital video files. SAR refers to the height and the width relationship in video frame size, and it is required to be consistent among all individual frames.
SAR x PAR = DAR for max widescreen videos in a usual used formula.
Part 1 Part 5: How Aspect Ratios Affect UI/UX Design?
Aspect ratios play a vital part in any project that consists of displaying and capturing photographs, videos, or other image-based files in an ideal manner. The camera’s fixed aspect ratio can considerably impact, especially for photographers.
And for videographers or anyone working with slideshows, animations, and other motion projects, the aspect ratio is a prominent element for correct display on mobile devices and widescreen.
But even in the environment of responsive web design, problems can arise, such as when an image is not adjustable for display without compromising its quality or content.
A small example is when you need a square image with a 1:1 aspect ratio to insert into a rectangular box on a web page. To accommodate varying image size requirements, proportions and size may need adjustment.
In an increasingly picture-driven digital world, videos and images that look even slightly out of the way add to a visitor’s negative impression of a site. Besides those forced into the wrong configurations can even interfere with a site’s usability.
Poorly proportioned user guide or product images video that’s too stretched to check clearly can affect both a visitor’s want and their ability to use the site. Developers, designers, and anyone working with images will need to know how aspect ratios work and manipulate them for the best visual effect.
Various pixel calculator ratios, both paid and free, have popped up on the web to streamline the process.

The app’s photo editing features are also remarkable which means that you can use the PhotoGrid app to manipulate images in any way you want.

Making a new video collage with PhotoVideo Collage Maker is a quick and simple process. You just have to pick a layout, arrange videos by dragging and dropping them to a preferred position and choose a frame for each video. The app features a rich collection frames and textures, and it even lets you use frames with curved edges that help your videos stand out. PhotoVideo Collage Maker enables you to import songs from your iTunes collection and allows you to control the volume of the videos or use the fade-in and fade-out effects. You can also choose if you want all the videos to play simultaneously or one after the other. Unlocking the app’s pro features will cost you $1.99, but making this investment is an excellent idea if you would like to use the PhotoVideo Collage Maker for professional purposes.
6. PicCollage Grid & Video Editor
Price: Free, but offers in-app purchases
Compatibility: iOS 10.3 or later
iPhone and iPad owners in need of a video collage app that also offers powerful photo editing tools are going to love using the PicCollage Grid & Video Editor app. You can either use templates or create authentic grids on your own to impress your friends on social media. The app’s text editor lets change fonts, pick different text colors or change its alignment, while the cutout mode enables you to remove the background from your photos within seconds. Besides making video collages, you can also use the PicCollage Grid & Video Editor to create animated collages. The only downside is that all photo or video collages you create with the free version of the app are going to be watermarked.
7. VidStitch Frames for Instagram
Price: Free, but offers in-app purchases
Compatibility: iOS 9.0
VidsStitch was designed exclusively for iPhones and iPads, and it works best with the videos captured on these devices. The process of creating a new video collage can be completed in just a few quick steps. You should start by choosing one of the pre-designed frames, then you should just import and arrange your videos within the frame and decide whether you want to post the video collage on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook. The free version of VidStich is going to watermark all your creations and it won’t allow you to add music to your collages, which is why purchasing the Pro pack and additional frames and borders will help you produce visual content that is going to impress your followers on social media.
Conclusion
Presentation of the videos you record with your iPhone or iPad is as important as their overall quality. The video collage makers for iOS-based devices provide you with all the tools you’re going to need to create visually dynamic, entertaining and attention-grabbing video collages your followers on social media are going to enjoy watching.
