‘Align to’ destroying my project

‘Align to’ destroying my project was created by Henry
Hello.
I’m creating a template where the user can enter their own text. This text is left justified, but centred on screen using an ‘Align to’ behaviour.This text animates on line by line using 3 text behaviours (opacity, rotation and position)When turning on ‘Align to’ sometimes it’s quick and responsive, other times I just get the spinning beach ball.Unfortunately, after making some tweaks I turned ‘Align to’ back on and got the spinning beach ball but it never recovered, so I force quit Motion. Now, I can’t open the project as sits on the spinning Bech ball forever…Activity monitor says ‘Motion (not responding)’ and is using 100.1% of the cpu.Any suggestions on how to fix this would be appreciated, or even other behaviours I could use to make sure the left justified text is always centred on screen – that would be great.iMac Pro 11.2.1 Motion 5.5.1Thank you
