Does anyone know of a decent corner pin plugin for Motion? "Four Corner" is acting funky. I just need to be able to drag my frame into a particular shape (like I can in AE).

Thanks,

No clue if there is one, doubt it. I'm testing Four Corner and it works just fine for me.

Thanks. The problem is that the frame I'm trying to corner pin is larger than the comp frame size so the corners are pretty far away. Every time I adjust a corner some of the other corners get moved. It's a whack-a-mole situation. Anyway, I think I'm giving up on Motion for this one. I hate to resort to AE but I have to finish this project soon.

Again, when I adjust a corner, the others simply stay in place. Not seeing other corners move when I move one corner.

Well I was attempting to do a very complicated phone screen comp where items keep sliding up the screen. That made the group I was corner pinning super tall. When I use four corner adjustment it did not work as normal. I've decided to break up the task and time out the animation of the screen ahead of time. That way the corner pin will be on a normal size frame and so it should work as it should. It limits my ability to adjust timing on the fly but I've already wasted several hours trying to do workarounds that all failed. I even tried TrackX to do this in FCPX because the corner pinning has more control there. But since there is a hand sliding across the screen each time the screen animates, it ended up being more key framing than motion tracking.

a) apply the MatchMoveBehavior to the Group, no the content of the group
b) set Group to 'Fixed Resolution'
c) use ScaleX/Y to match contents width to screen…
d) to 'scroll' animate the contents Y parameter
