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

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.)
