I've been chasing Avid about this for about 2 years, and I've just tried it in again in Mac MC 8.5.2 for both Pan & Zoom and Frameflex and they are STILL not working (they promised me that they are working on Frameflex instead of Pan & Zoom).
All I want is this (for example): A football team photo: off-centre zoom from the person in the back row on the edge of the photo to reveal the full team photo. Standard documentary-making stuff. I want a linear path - and an ease in/ease out in terms of speed.
It doesn't work in Pan & Zoom, still - you get the crazy fly all-over-the-place path.
And in Frameflex, you have to guess the aspect ratio of the photo - it doesn't 'know' what the pixel dimensions are. Also, when I changed the last Size keyframe, it affected the aspect ratio of the first Size keyframe too. And, this scenario doesn't give you a linear path - you get the crazy fly all-over-the-place path - like Pan & Zoom. And to cap it all there is no speed control! AAAAAH! (all they appear to have done is added a rudimentary 'rotate' control).
Or am I missing something in Frameflex? Is there a hidden 'speed' function? (used to be called stripey string in Henry). All I can see is Position and Size - and if you meddle with Bezier curves you're just affecting Position & Size, not Speed. Anyone? I give up.
