[Avid-L2] Was Can't resize Timeline Window. Now 6.0.1 TT weirdness.

 

Ah - or is it? On two Macs (one on 10.6.8 and one on 10.7.2) I find that the settings for the first graphic object in the Avid TT stay around for any other objects. If I make some text, change the fill colour, add a border and a shadow etc, when I deselect that object and start a new one, the same settings are applied so each parameter has to be reset. In earlier versions this only happened if you changed parameters with the selection tool active but no object selected. This is a right PITA, especially the shadow as if softness has been applied, it means going into the Object menu and setting the value to zero.
