Q: Motion export loses behaviour

Hi! Please help my sanity...   When I export a movie using Motion, the 'Text - Continuos' behaviour is lost.

 

Here's a little more detail:

- I am creating some very basic 2 second text animations using Motion 5.  There are a a few layers of text each with 1 or 2 different behaviours from 'Text - Energetic'.

- On one of the layers I have used the 'Text - Continuous' behaviour (Frightened, to be exact).

- Once the movie is exported (4444 to maintain Alpha), all the other behaviours work fine, EXCEPT for the Continous.

 

Just before the final step of exporting, I can scrub over the thumbnail preview and I can see all the effects working perfectly.

 

Am I missing something really obvious?

 

Thanks in advance, Kris

    Frightened works fine for me. Your going to have to be a little bit more specific

    Which behaviors in addition to Frightened are you using specifically? What is the order of the behaviors? BTW, you can just give the behavior names, you are using calling  a behavior from Continuous or Energetic is a bit confusing because they are categories , not a specific behaviors.

    Have you made any changes to the default settings in the behaviors, and if so what are they?  Can you post a screen shot of the layer list?  You'll need to be as detailed as possible since we can't see your computer or project.  Have you tried to isolate the behaviors from each other to see if theres a conflict?  For example if you have two behaviors on a piece of text and you disable one and export, does the remaining behavior show up in the export?

     

    Let us know more to see if someone can reproduce it or make a more detailed suggestion.
