Usage of OSCs in Sequence Text Behavior instantly crashes M5.4

… as mentioned first @

http://www.fcp.co/forum/6-motion-5/28699-project-freezes-after-sequence-text-is- rotated-with-adjust-item-tool#94581

… there seems to be a bug in the universal 'Sequence Text Behavior' in M5.4/HighSierra:

The moment you touch any of the three OSCs for rotation (x/y/z axis) M5 freezes (or 'hangs').

If any other Motionistas would like to test, please.-

If you can confirm this flaw, please send Apple a feedback…

Using the controls in the Inspector does work normal…

Mac mini, macOS Sierra (10.12), Pana707/Sony NEX 5/Pana FZ1000

I can confirm. The action hangs Motion indefinitely (waited about 20 minutes).

Better to Force Quit and send Crash Report. Mention changing angle in Sequence Text OSC. Faster and more direct than Feedback. If you have the time, do it once a day 😉

This is NOT the only problem Motion 5.4 has... most of the others, if you wait it out generally "come around" (sometimes several minutes) and once the freeze happens, it doesn't happen again in a "session". This one, however, does not recover.
