    I’ve downloaded Motion 5 to start to check it out on a secondary system. It has become the default version of Motion and if I want to open a previous version project and keep it in Motion 4, I have to manually open Motion 4. Is there a way of making Motion 4 once again the default version?

    BTW, I want to especially thank everyone for their responses and insights regarding this unfortunate X situation. I will ultimately need to make some hard decisions in the next few months, and the cumulative wisdom found here will help to make an informed decision.

    Thanks,

    Jim

    I’m with you there… I went ahead and zipped it for now. Look forward to figurin out if I want to go that route, with new x versions and all as well.
