  • Apple Motion 4 Importing / View problem…

    Posted by Thomas Ahlers on December 4, 2013 at 11:30 am

    If anyone can help… When I import files into Apple Motion 4 (from either FCP 7 or otherwise) It appear oversized to the viewer. It crops out about 25% of the boarder all around. It appears fine in the Inspector window.

    I know I could just drag the parameters to match but that seems to cause other issues when exporting back to FCP.

    Seems like a simple thing but HEEELLP!

    Change the View in the pop-up menu at the top right to “Fit” or press Shift-Z to fit to window.

    That doesn’t seem to do it. shift-Z only seems to enlarge it to 65%. I checked and unchecked all the options.
    I’m still cropped behind some sort of background mask or something.

    Thanks you for responding.
