Motion Known Issues
Audio
When 24-bit Integer Stereo sound compression is used to export audio, the rendered
audio file plays faster than the original audio file.
Custom behavior
•
When you choose Properties > Blending from the Add Parameter shortcut menu of
the Custom behavior parameters, the Preserve Opacity option is displayed. This
option should not be available.
•
If a project is saved with a Custom behavior that is applied to a shape, and Shape
Animation is selected from the Add > Object shortcut menu, Motion stops
responding when the project is opened.
Drop shadow
On computers with ATI Radeon graphics cards, turning on the Drop Shadow checkbox
for a layer in the Layer Dashboard after changing the Blend Mode to something other
than Normal causes Motion to quit unexpectedly.
Filters
•
When using the Glass Distortion filter with some images, the effect of the map image
disappears or shifts position when the Softness parameter is adjusted.
•
When a keying filter is applied to an image with a preexisting alpha channel, the
original alpha channel is replaced.
•
When using the Defocus filter with some NVIDIA cards, performance is degraded
significantly.
Keyframe Editor
•
Drag-selecting keyframes near frame 1 in the Keyframe Editor may be problematic.
For example, when drag-selecting keyframes at or near frame 1 to beyond the half-
way marker of the Keyframe Editor’s scale, all keyframes on all curves are selected.
•
When an object is animated (using keyframes) and Show is set to Active in the
Keyframe Editor, and you select then deselect the animated object in the Canvas,
then click in the Keyframe Editor, Motion may quit unexpectedly.
Library
The Favorites category does not display descriptions of built-in presets.
Control
-click
the favorite, then choose Edit Description from the shortcut menu to add a description
that appears in the Preview area of the Library.
Monitors
If using a dual-monitor setup, the View pop-up menu may appear on your second
monitor when using the default Standard layout (View > Layouts > Standard).
