    Cool, I think just a global feather control for all 4 sides would be perfect. Thanks.

    Just downloaded the grunge filter, good to have in the arsenal. All of you Motion programming warriors are making life much easier! ::me raising a glass::

    [Ethan Young] “How difficult is it to add a feather option to fuzz out the border?”

    Here it is just for you with an edge feather control. I’ve also included a checkbox for the border which defaults to Off as you won’t want a border with this effect normally – or will you?!

    Enjoy!

    Looks perfect to me, glad you defaulted the border to off, as well. Thanks!

    I noticed that the on screen controls were not in this version, any way to get those into this version, too?

    Thanks Simon!

    Do you mean the version that I did for Eli?

    It’s getting hard to keep track of who wants what! Hadn’t realised you’d seen the OSC version.

    Anyway here it is with all bells and whistles including onscreen control of the position – I’ve defaulted both the Border and the Drop Shadow to off on this version.

    Simon, that’s a very nice addition–the OSC of the position; thank you. I can see your point, though, of not having the numerical control and feedback (to be able to set several adjusted frames in a row that duplicate each others’ positions (but that can be gotten around by doing copy/paste-effect action). (Life is a series of compromises).

    Thanks again for your contributions and for your help; they are greatly appreciated.

    Best,
    Eli

    Yup, I’m very much a “do it by the numbers” guy and have never been a big fan of onscreen controls but I know they can be handy and it certainly makes things quicker here in some respects.

    Just to add that you can click and drag over the numbers in the control panel as well as nudging with the up and down arrows so you’re not stuck with just entering numbers if you want something a bit more interactive – but then I’m sure you know this already.
