Apple Motion 4 - Manual (Page 186)

• HSV: This setting displays the color as hue, saturation, and value (brightness) where
hue is a value from 1–360, and saturation and value are ranged from 1–100. Alpha is
also displayed ranged from 1–100.
Project Pane
The Project Preferences pane contains settings for timing, display, and playback options.
There are four categories of controls: Default Settings, Time Display, Still Images & Layers,
and Playback Control.
Default Settings
These controls in the Project Preferences pane determine default values for newly created
projects. To change these settings for a specific project, use the Project Properties dialog
instead (choose Edit > Project Properties or press Command-J).
Note: These settings only take effect in projects created after the preferences are set. Any
currently opened projects are not affected.
Project Duration: Sets the default duration for new projects. You can type a number into
the value field and choose Frames or Seconds from the pop-up menu.
Background Color: A color well that sets the color of the background for any new projects
that are created after the color has been changed. This does not change the background
color of the current project. To change the background color for a current project, choose
Edit > Project Properties (or press Command-J) and use the Background Color controls.
Note: To render a new background color into your final output, you must choose Solid
from the Background pop-up menu in the General tab of the Project Properties dialog
(press Command-J).
