Right click on the source monitor and it's on the drop down list, second from the top. This one has been throwing me for a loop, too, and I'll have to re-train muscle memory. Not complaining, though, as I like the new location.On Tue, Feb 2, 2016 at 1:44 PM, David Dodson davaldod@gmail.com [Avid-L2] <Avid-L2@yahoogroups.com> wrote:I agree, Good upgrade. But what happened to "Load Filler" in the Source window pull-down? I do see Ad Filler, but that's not the same as being able to put Filler in the Source monitor and specifying a duration to then slug in somewhere. Or am I missing it?

Menu changes useful and logical but what happened to the Hardware Tool? Always useful to check on storage.Also, being brave (silly) I upped from 8.4.5 to 8.5 in a two hour slot between teaching classes involving Avid Pan & Zoom. Hit a barrier I have seen mentioned, that of the inability of P&Z to load graphics buried deep in sub-folders. In 8.4.5 I could load files in (an example); <Drive>/Folder1/Folder2/Folder3/Folder4. With 8.5, this failed and I had to move a folder up a couple of levels.Plenty of other good features to explore but please:1) Make the alpha channel default the same in Import and Link2) Change the wording in Pan & Zoom from 'Import Fie' to 'Link to file'. It has always been a link, long before AMA, and when you teach, these distinctions are important.
