Maybe I wasn’t clear. Prior to Motion 2.0.1 you could position the playhead anywhere on your timeline,
hit the record button and that would be the starting keyframe for your motion. You could then move
your playhead to where you wanted your motion to end and then move your object (or resize or do anything).
You would then disable the record button and your motion would be added — starting with where you had
first placed your playhead.
Now the motion begins at the beginning of my timeline regardless of where I place my playhead (and then enabling the record button). It does end correctly (where I had positioned the end point), but regardless of what object I move it will NOT begin at the position of the playhead.
In other words, if I want my movement to begin 2 seconds (60 frames) from the start of the timeline, using the record button after placing the playhead at 60 frames no longer works. It begin the motion from the first frame regardless of playhead placement.
This was confirmed by Apple this evening.
