Does anyone know if any of the following requested productivity improvements have been implemented in PD13? To me these are more important than new features, as they reduce man hours on a project.

+ Magic Motion Designer -- ability to select full image.

+ Title Designer -- ability to "center" both V and H.

+ Tile Designer -- ability to Ctrl+A select-all that works without having to move cursor outside of the Title Designer window.

+ Ability to apply Audio Mixing Room changes to multiple selected clips.

+ Ability to apply Transition Room effects to selected clips.

+ User created hot-keys (that are remembered from version to version).

+ Fix/Enhance more than one clip at a time.

+ Wave Editor -- compressor/limiter function.

+ Wave Editor -- noise floor function.

Thanks!

Hi PDuser97031B -

There's a dedicated thread for suggestions at http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/40351.page

Tile Designer -- ability to Ctrl+A select-all that works without having to move cursor outside of the Title Designer window.

In Title Designer, Ctl+A does select all the text without any extra cursor movement... unlike PDR12 where it didn't appear to be selected.

The Wave Editor functions you seek can be found in free VST installations.

Yes, I am aware of that thread. In the past I have submitted all of these improvements via the official CL "create a ticket" facility and was just wondering if any were implemented. Does the dedicated thread get better response than opening a ticket (which emulates a black hole)? If so I will copy these there.

Yes, I am using VST's to improve Audio Editor functionality. But this puts the onus on the end user to invent their own solution. Also, only a subset of VSTs will work with the editor, and PD tends to "forget" your VSTs when upgrading product versions. I'd really like to see these basic editing functions built into the software (and the audio editing not a separate standalone program).

Hi PDuser97031B/Roy,
FYI, the http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/40351.page thread is being monitored by CyberLink as far as I'm aware.
