It's nearly there now and surely it will be in motion 4... reckon they're holding back to have something to sell next time! I've also found a few glitches in my motion 3 upgrade, sometimes the animation key doesn't set keyframes when you move position and the 'nudge' (apple arrow keys) doesn't move position like it did before. Also I can't export anything on the new soundtrack! Anyone else find anything wrong with their upgrades?

We are trying it out ourselves, but one thing isn't happening the same way it does in your tutorial. When we analyze the motion, the crosshairs follow along but the keyframe path does not appear. Can you tell us if maybe we have to change a setting or something? Thanks, Lynn Hi -

Can't belive it gets lost so easily. Goes to a highlight on the girl's arm instead of a blazing white light? After Effects does this waaay better. I'm totally surprised at Apple's incompetence here. Motion is great.. but Motion Tracking really sucks. Amazingly BAD motion tracking! Can’t belive it gets lost so easily. Goes to a highlight on the girl’s arm instead of a blazing white light?

I want to use a green screen in a set but not sure the best way to make the object move while panning the camera. For example, if I make a fake window with my green screen how can I make footage in the window change as the camera changes? Is Motion 3 a solution for this or how can it be done? Regards, Mark Josh,
