Oops, meant to type Motion 5.0.5! Can the admins here change that for me, please?
Open more than 1 Motion 5 project at a time.
Copy/paste layers between then.
Faster opening of complex projects.
Text Marker that is wicked awesome.
Text Marker-
Create ONE in your Titles Template and publish for FCP X (text markers are published automatically). Then in FCP X, when you double click the title template in your timeline, the playhead jumps to the Text Marker.
How is this useful? What if you have text that spins and curls and twists a lot. It could be difficult to drag the playhead manually to a spot that you can actually access the text blocks, right? Get where I"m going here?

Woohoo! Multiple projects at the same time will rock my socks!
Here's the update log from Apple.

Open multiple projects simultaneously to easily switch, copy, and paste between them.
Accelerated loading of complex projects.

Resolves a stability issue that could occur when applying the Keyer filter with the Inspector open.

I notice Apple didn't mention the Text Marker. How did you discover it?

I've been digging for a few hours really deep and fast and hard. It is what we trainers get paid to do. I've probably read 3/4 of the updated user manual already. We trainers work our butts off to stay up to date, you know.

Trainer? Do you work for Apple?
Nevermind, I see that you work at the university and you're a Apple Certified Master Trainer. Nice work!

No, I do not work "for" Apple. I'm an independent producer, trainer, consultant and semi-retired IT engineer, working across the country. That's all. But I've been at this for a very, very long time.
