Re: Motion as a time saver tool...do you feel me?

Yar, I share your enthusiasm.
The secret is being able to predict ahead of time which application will be appropriate for the job.

Yesterday I was doing a fairly simple quad split of photgraphs flying in from behind the camera, resting on the stage for a few seconds and then flying up and back into a quad. I could have done it in about 15 minutes in AE with easy control over the motion paths and eases.
Took me about 12 hours in Motion. It would taken much less but I thought I'd try behaviors. Then it took me a few hours to figure out can't use Beziers on motion paths unless you first go to the keyframe editor. then I found out having a layer or object selected in the keyframe editor does not select it in the canvas or timeline.
I hate Motion with an unreasonably deep yet obscenely satisfying passion.
