I did a list search for 8.3 and pan and zoom and didn't come up with anything related to my issue. I have an offline sequence that I believe was offlined on Avid 7, I've got an email into the offline editor to confirm this. In the mean time I see the pan and zoom effect in the timeline but when I import the image the move seems to be missing. I remember going form ver. 5.5 to Ver 6 there were compatibility issue due to the lack of a 64 bit quicktime engine for windows. Is there now some more compatibility issue with pan and zoom and earlier versions of Avid?
Second observation is I can't go into a paint effect and use "cmd+A" to select all the objects in the paint effect. To work on a paint effect from offline I usually shrink the effect window so I can see outside the raster. Then I tap in select mode outside the raster. Once I've done that I can hit "cmd+A" and all the objects in the paint effect will be selected. I can then us the "A" and "S" keys to toggle between the selected objects one at a time. I can't seem to make this work in 8.3.1. The only way I can select the objects is to drag across the entire screen. This is a pain because I may bump one of the object in the process and even after selecting the objects this way the "A" and "S" don't seem to toggle between the selected object. This a real pain when they drew a box around the entire frame and then an oval erase inside the raster. If the bigger box is the top object I can't find a way to select the smaller underneath oval without moving the big box out of the way. With multi keyframed effects this is really unworkable. Is there a new approach in 8.3.1? I feel crippled by this interface change. What am I missing here?
