Rotating video in FCP 10.4

[HDFan]

In FCP 10.4.9 I have a clip which is rotated – 2160 x 3840. I can flip it horizontally using transform, but the flip doesn’t change the size of the clip so the edges are truncated. How do I change the clip size to 3840 x 2160?



I posted to CreativeCow but got no responses. Are there other good FCP forums that I can use as I work through Larry Jordan's training videos?

Open it in quicktime and rotate it left or right. Then save it and import the new clip in FinalCut.

That worked. Thanks!

There is a rotate option in Final Cut inspector.

That's what I used. Turns out the problem was the project. This was the first video I placed in it and so the project dimensions were reversed. Opened the project inspector, changed the dimensions there, then the rotate option worked without clipping.
