@@HolmesMotion hey thanks for your reply :) The sort feature opens a tab with fields where you put the names of the folders where it should sort file types. The last input is basically asking which folders the ‘remove unused’ or ‘remove old folders’ functions should avoid: it’s another text field and it works as expected when typed in the name of one folder; but what if I want more than one folder to be ignored in the whole sorting process? I tried typing in two existing folder names and separating them with whatever code syntax I could think of, but the function breaks completely that way and the sort doesnt avoid either of them. Thanks again, great content btw!

Where did the BOUNCE preset go? While Motion4 looks cool on the outside, I find it over-complicated & un-intuitive , packed with unnecessary proprietary features that don't translate down to vanilla AE and missing critical functions. Why do I need to swift thru garbage features like preset comps, control timeline etc: it all can be and IS done withing the app itself! I think the dev team got lost of misguided by some stupid CEO decision here.

@garnishstudio3567 Жыл бұрын
Indeed. I find myself confused about some of the UI coming from motion 3, and have trouble for example detecting what kind of easy ease data already exists on keyframes. I find myself overwriting the keyframe data, rather than being able to come back to a keyframe and make subtle tweaks, which is pretty disruptive for me. Update: NVM, I figured it out. You have to click on the signal icon in the Ease Graph window when some keyframes are highlighted -- then it will show the current easing data.
