This problem is related to point parameters, because the y axis is flipped between FCP/FCE and Motion. I check with "FxHostCapabilities hostIsMotion" and "hostIsFCP" / "hostIsFCE" to handle this correctly. The problem appears when a Motion project is inserted into FCP's timeline. Then, "hostIsFCP" returns YES, but the point data retrieval method returns x/y coordinates from the Motion project. Yes, I think if "hostIsMotion" would return YES in that situation, that would fix the problem. I wonder if there is a way for an fxplug effect in FCP to find out if the parameter data originate from a Motion project that was inserted into the FCP timeline. Can an effect get information, in which host the parameter data were created? If not, maybe this is a piece of information, which I should put into a custom parameter? Can you explain in more detail what you mean? For example, if a plugin is running via the Motion.component in FCP, would it be sufficient for calls to the [-FxHostCapabilities hostIsMotion] method to return YES? If so, this is something which is fixed in the next release. (No I can't say when that will be.) This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
