This is the bug I reported awhile back where if you update a parameter value in response to another parameter changing, it all works perfectly in the UI but once you quit and restart FCPX, any changes you made in the update call are where they should be. So if you have two sliders with value=0 with a "gang" toggle, with the gang toggle on and you drag slider 1, and update slider 2 to have the same value in the parameterChanged call, then quit/restart, gang is on and slider 2 is reset back to (ie the change never took permanent effect). This bug makes whole classes of nifty effects impossible, and forces the only way to have a "preset" be to make it as an effect template in Motion. This all works in Motion BTW. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

Are you still seeing it with that release? Marco confirms that it seems to be working properly there - I still haven't updated yet since I wanted to check against the original build. But I suppose I should get over people sticking with older builds with AppStore apps huh? This email sent to dcardani(a)apple.com This email sent to site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com

FxTemporalImageAPI memory overflow in FCP X?

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: Pro-apps-dev(a)lists.apple.com Hello, are the FxTemporalImageAPI methods considered to work correctly in FCP X (10.0.1)? When reading a sequence of frames, FCP X allocates more and more memory, which is never released. This occurs with all bitmap and texture reading methods in FxTemporalImageAPI.

site_archiver(a)lists.apple.com Delivered-To: Pro-apps-dev(a)lists.apple.com You think Apple will exempt themselves from the Mac App Store rules? That's certainly possible. (Although I'm curious to see what kind of public statement they could make about such an exception. "All apps are equal, but some are more equal than others...?") Even then, it casts some doubt over the justifications of the sandboxing requirement. It's supposed to be about eliminating security hole attack vectors in native apps. If everything else on a typical Mac becomes securely sandboxed except for FCP / Motion / Logic / Aperture, won't that attract unwanted attraction from malware writers to target these apps specifically...? -- Pauli Ojala Lacquer oy/ltd pauli(a)lacquer.fi On 3.11.2011, at 17.57, James Brooks wrote: > The sandbox is to protect users from malicious developers.
