I updated from PD18 to PD365. Can someone confirm that the preset start and end effect animations for 3D Titles don't work in PD365? In PD18 they still work! Recware: DJI Osmo Pocket, GoproHero7Black, PanasonicFZ300/HCX909, Sony PXW-X160.

I'm not familiar with submitting a support request. Is it not sufficient to report a bug to this forum? I thought the developers also read here.

Generally speaking, CL employees don't monitor the forum so the best way to get the attention of the right people is to use the official support channel. I've done it many times and am happy to take care of this.

I've just reported the issue on ticket CS002230184.

During my testing, I created a simple project showing a Default title and Default 3D title with a Balloon In effect and a Horizontal Amplify Out effect. The standard title shows the animation in the Title Designer, on the timeline and when produced.

The Default 3D title show no animation under any of those condiutions, and in fact no animation boxes are selected when the Title Designer is reopened, which strongly implies that the selections are never saved or applied.

The sample project can be downloaded from this OneDrive folder (no sign in necessary).

Hi,
By way of confirmation -

In PDR 19 do you both see that the selection of any 3D title>Title Designer>Animation gives a selection of animations, labelled Beam Out - Down or Assembly Line etc. etc. which are the same as 2D title animations?

In PDR18 the selection 3D title>Title Designer>Effect would give title animations labelled as 3D Fade, 3D Flocking etc. etc.?

Indeed, I see the same animations in 3D title as in 2D title.

I think that's the issue! PDR14 has "3D -" at the start of each 3D title effect's name, while PDR19/365 has only un-prefixed effect names, which may mean it's trying to apply non-functional 2D animations.

When I was creating the test project, I noticed that the new Copy Title Attributes function could not be used when one title was standard and the other was 3D, so it would appear that the 3D Title Designer wasn't properly configured to use the 3D-only animations.

Additional info: A 3D Title with 3D Animation project created in PD18 works also in PD19 but the animation cannot be changed. The 3D Animation effects just don't show up in PD19 Recware: DJI Osmo Pocket, GoproHero7Black, PanasonicFZ300/HCX909, Sony PXW-X160.

CL just released v19.0.2222.0 for the subscription version, and the first thing I tested was this issue.

The good news is that newly created 3D titles work great and all the 3D animations are available.

However, I had an issue the first time I opened up the test project from my earlier post. There weren't any start/end sections in the Title Designer timeline and the animation didn't work, so you may have to delete and recreate 3D titles from earlier PD19 projects.

Till now I didn't receive a notification for an update release!

OK, I see a notification when I open the Application Manager.
