    I'd love to see a very customisable checklist plugin tutorial! Can we download it somewhere too? Please also develop great checklist plugins and sell them so we can save time. Maybe with animation features or 'blur rest of the items in the list' options etc. Most FCP list plugins out there work clunky or aren't even customisable. Liked and subscribed of course! 🙏

    Is it possible to have the onscreen parameter tool to scale text versus going to the properties? Also if I wanted to have text that said David, Bob or Jim and be able to toggle thru is that achievable with this?

    • @MotionWithJames
      @MotionWithJames 3 місяці тому

      Yup, both are easily achievable. If you want to use an OSC to control the scale parameter of a text layer, all you need to do is linking the text scale parameter of the text layer to a filter that has OSC. Check out my first video on how I link up an OSC to control a text list spacing: ua-cam.com/video/jqRHxviQPlI/v-deo.html It's the same idea. To have a dropdown menu that allows you to choose among several options, you just need to add each text's opacity to the dropdown widget. I actually covered it in this video you commented on! I showed how I use the opacity parameter to hide/show a layer.

    Can you show us how to make round edges in rectangles, that grow/shrink properly along with the rectangle in older versions of motion?

    • @MotionWithJames
      @MotionWithJames 3 місяці тому

      Could you elaborate? I actually only got into Motion when it's already version 5, but if you describe the function I might be able to look into it!

    • @GabrielRuiz-jz1ge
      @GabrielRuiz-jz1ge 3 місяці тому

      @@MotionWithJames whe you use round edges on a rectangle, and change the width or lenght out of proportion, the round corners doesn´t look round, but more or less eliptical. Think in a box with text, if you began to fill it with more text and the box needs to grow vertically, the edges will deform and not look round anymore.

    Great job! Are you planning to produce title-based transition effects in the future? This would be very useful for multi-layered projects. It would be great to be able to apply transition effects without having to put videos into a Compound Clip. (Example: Fxfactory PremiumVFX Seamless Transitions)
