    a quick outline of what I’m trying to do…
    I have 3 images on screen each occupying one third of the screen going from left to right. I have some grows and throws each of the images. Everything looks fine in motion. However, when I go back into FCP my middle image is scaled and distorted. I’ve had this issue with a couple of compositions. Previously I just rendered out a quicktime, but I would love to find a solution to this bug or issue to retain my flexibility.
    Thanks.

    Are the images all the same original size?

    Are they all treated with the exact same settings?

    Have your tried changing the stacking order of the elements?

    No all the images aren’t the same size.
    They are all different… because one of them I’m doing a push in on. Another is panning (throw in motion) an one is static.

    The settings should be the same

    … And I’ll try rearranging the stacking order.

    On a side note.
    This is not the first comp I’ve had do this. I’ve had erratic behavior in other comps too. I a previous comp I had 2 images panning together. One was fine and the other (an oversize logo) kept coming back into FCP flipped and upside down, though it looked fine in Motion.

    Thanks
