Final Cut Pro Certification Practice Test

The option to copy files into the library when dragging files from the Finder to an event is set in the Final Cut Pro > Preferences > Import pane. This setting allows users to manage how media is handled when importing it into a project. By selecting the appropriate option here, you can ensure that any files you drag into your library are copied directly into the library's structure. This is particularly useful for media management, as it consolidates assets within the library, facilitating easier access and organization during editing.

The other options relate to different features or settings within Final Cut Pro. For instance, while "File > Import > Settings" provides some import functionality, it does not specifically dictate how files are copied when dragged from Finder. Similarly, "Library > Settings > Import" and "Edit > Preferences > Import" do not exist in the Final Cut Pro interface, making those choices invalid. Thus, the correct answer centers on the Preferences menu where these specific import settings are clearly located.
