New Features in Motion 2
This document explains the new features and enhancements released in Motion 2.
Float Bit Depth Support
Motion now supports the following project bit depths:
Â
8-Bit (8-bit integer)
 16-Bit Float
 32-Bit Float
All bit depths are GPU hardware accelerated.
Although Motion’s float processing is handled by your system’s GPU hardware for
accelerated performance, working in float is very processor intensive. You can quickly
change the preview of the project to 8-bit to speed your workflow by turning off
“Preview for Float Bit Depth” in the View menu. The View pop-up menu is located in the
upper-right corner of the Canvas (below the Timing icon).
Note: You can also choose View > Preview Float Bit Depth.
To change the bit depth of a project:
1 Choose Edit > Project Properties (or press Command+J ).
