mocha AE CS5.5 Release Notes

17 February 2011

Introduction
These release notes accompany mocha AE CS5.5. This is a pre-release for testing purposes. Documentation is available inside mocha AE by pressing the F1 key.

New Features in CS5.5
This release includes several new improvements: Improved User Interface. New icons and streamlined interface make mocha AE even easier to learn and master. Hardware rendering: Optional OpenGL hardware accelerated matte rendering to provide speed and greater control over motion blur parameters Files with large amounts of layers load much faster. Performance improvements for reading and tracking QuickTime files on 64-bit Windows

Fixed Issues
Issue: Platform: Description: DE246: Files with a large amount of layers take a long time to load. All Opening, saving and closing a project with a large amount of layers took a very long time to load, in some cases more than 5 minutes. Load time is now significantly reduced. DE497: Overlays turn off and show error while tracking in hardware rendering mode All If mattes, splines, surface and grid were all on while tracking mocha would track a few frames then the viewer would go static and not show any more overlays. DE505: Deactivated point disappears from viewer All Deactivating a point caused it to disappear entirely from the viewer, meaning it could only be found again by hunting through the curve editor. DE562: Clipboard data had incorrect line ending characters Windows On 64-bit windows, tracking and shape data was placed on the clipboard with UNIX line endings. This mean that it would not paste into After Effects CS3 or older. DE862: Large jumps in rotation All When the transform data or corner-pin with motion blur exports were used for an object that rotates more than 180º, a large jump would appear in the rotation data, which could cause incorrect motion blur rendering in After Effects.
