Yes. Well, I don’t know about “just“, but yeah, they did. ????

April 23, 2017 at 4:01 amDon’t jump to conclusions. I can’t speak for Wes, but I do know him. To my knowledge he wasn’t specifically hired for a given task. And FWIW, it was his father who did all the software work, writing code. As you might remember, folks associated with Color (before Apple bought the company) were brought on board and then assigned to things other than developing Apple Color.

Doesn’t FCPX need a new titling tool much more than Premiere Pro?

No, or not as nearly as bad as Premiere needed it. That title tool was stuck in the 1990’s. In my opinion only, of course.

I will second that emotion.
It was very frustrating to have to duplicate all of the titles to keep old versions.
If a program had 100 titles in it, you’d have to dupe all 100 to freeze the version. Very annoying and prone to lots of errors.
This new version will hopefully be a lot easier to use.
And for what it’s worth, X’s title tool is pretty good, especially when you start factoring the Motion Templates.

I could just as easily say FCPX’s titling tool is stuck in the 1980s but talk is cheap. What can you do with FCPX’s titling tool that I cannot do with the titling tool of Premiere Pro CS 4.0?

FCPX has the ever important, much needed, super essential … 3D text ; )”I am not sure it is true 3-D with ray-tracing. I think it is just a tad better than Premiere Pro’s 3-D titling. I have yet to see anyone create a metal object (hexagon) with FCPX’s titling tool and have a glass title pass in front of it. I see cheap 3-D imitations with FCPX. Having said that with out any type of 3-D design tools FCPX’s titling tool sucks ass. That is the first time I actually said anything negative about FCPX but it is true.

“So you have experience using FCPX to back this up?
