While using standalone Motion (not through Final Cut) I am unable to undo any action or edit, and I am also unable to delete anything from the timeline or inspector section. No idea how thats possible nor why this is even an option. Nothing is locked and I have the ability to right click and hit delete, although it doesn't do anything. I am new to Motion and this is my first time using it, although I have used Final Cut extensively.
MacBook Air (M1, 2020)
Make sure your layers and/or groups are *not* locked:
Clicking the lock will toggle the lock on a layer or group.
Typing Control-L will toggle the lock(s) on selected Layers/Groups.
Toggling the lock on a group will lock or unlock all the layers within the group.
I'm sorry — I didn't mean to leave you hanging...
Usually, somebody else with more experience with this type of problem usually chimes in and suggests either 1) restart Motion holding down the Command and Option keys to Delete Preferences, or 2) move Apple Motion to the Trash and reinstall it from the App Store...
For me, personally, neither 1 or 2 have ever made a difference to my prior situations so I would rather prefer if somebody with more experience with these situations help you out. I'm a little out of my depth with this kind of problem.
Let us know if you still need assistance and please be patient!
Nothing in the project is locked, everything that has a lock next to it has the unlocked icon
I was going to suggest deleting the pref files. But if that doesn't fix it, use FCS Remover (free from Digital Rebellion) to remove Motion totally, then reinstall it, reopen the project.
Can't undo or delete in motion?
