Does Motion 5 render using Sub-Pixel Rendering, and if not, why not?

I'm curious if Motion 5 uses sub pixel rendering to help smooth out text renders (or any renders for that matter)? I work professionally rendering graphics for film and tv and most of our work requires Sub Pixel rendering. I can't find any documentation letting me know one way or the other.

Motion5 is a 'stand-alone'-app, you can use it as your 'special effects maker' for any edit-app, as iMovie, FC/e, or Premiere, or Hitfilm, or whatever...
Even with FCPX, there's actually no round-tripping:
So, export your material from your editor, apply effects, export from M5, import back to editor. Works like charme!
… what you miss: M5 allows creation of titles, transitions, generators, effects as 'plug-ins' for FCPX. So, for repeatedly things, I do not create individual 'projects' again and again, I just built me a plug-in. Example: To insert via an effect the goalies in my weekly soccer-reports, I made me a very elaborated 'title', with a selector menu, and instantly FCPX inserts the correct picture of player, his name, all animated, bells&whistles etc etc.-
You can create this as 'stand alone' projects for any other editor too... less convieniant. But optional.
No need for FCPX…

Unable to disable sub-pixel rendering on fonts

I have an odd situation with my font configuration where I'm trying to disable sub-pixel rendering but certain applications (notably, firefox) do not seem to be respecting my font settings.
I've tried to disable sub-pixel rendering via fontconfig by creating the relevant symlink:
# ln -s ../conf.avail/10-no-sub-pixel.conf /etc/fonts/conf.d/10-no-sub-pixel.conf
I have also made sure that this is the lowest-numbered symlink in the /etc/fonts/conf.d directory.
Though I don't think it should matter, I have also ensured that the following files do not exist:
$ rm -rf ~/.fonts.conf.d/
$ rm -rf ~/.fonts.conf
$ rm -rf $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/conf.d/
$ rm -rf $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fontconfig/fonts.conf
I'm not running a desktop environment and I am using Openbox as my window manager. Currently, chromium doesn't use sub-pixel rendering on its fonts though I'm finding that firefox and openbox do display fonts using sub-pixel rendering despite the aforementioned symlink.
I suspected maybe gconf might have something to do with this but I uninstalled it and the problem still persists.
I am confused as to why different applications would display the fonts differently. Is there some other mechanism for controlling sub-pixel rendering that I am overlooking?

Font newbie question: Does being able to see sub-pixel rendering depend on the monitor you're using?
Yes, and no.
Yes in the sense that the design of your monitor matters in order for the subpixel rendering to achieve its intended effect. No in the sense that it will always change the look of your fonts, but it must be properly configured for your particular monitor and in some cases it is simply not going to work correctly.
Sub-pixel rendering doesn't make sense on CRT monitors. If you are using a CRT, you definitely do not want this. It is meant to be used on flatscreen (i.e. LCD, OLED, etc.) monitors and it typically allows for a higher effective vertical resolution at the expense of color fidelity. Some people like this look and some people don't.
The pixel geometry on your LCD monitor matters. If sub-pixel rendering is turned on, whatever software is rendering your fonts needs to know the physical layout of the red, green, and blue pixel components on your monitor. On an flatscreen monitor, the left to right order within each pixel is typically red, green, then blue, though this is not always the case.
A monitor with a high pixel density would also make it more difficult to discern whether or not sub-pixel rendering is turned on by virtue of the fact that as pixel density increases, it becomes more difficult to see the individual pixel components.

My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. I believe there may be a problem with the battery or the backlight. I've had my screen replaced once by some stooges. What should I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recoverymode use one of these programs.
For PC

If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Step by step:
1. On your main vi Front Panel, create your boolean indicator.
2. On the block diagram, right click the new boolean indicator and select Create - Reference.
3. On sub-vi front panel, create boolean indicator (or use one that is already created).
4. On sub-vi front panel, create a reference (Controls Palette - Refnum - Control Refnum).
5. Right click on the newly created Refnum and select Select Vi Server Class - Generic - GObject - Control - Boolean. The refnum label changes to BoolRefnum.
6. On sub-vi block diagram, create Property Node (Functions - Application Control - Property Node). Find the BoolRefnum and move it close to the new Property Node.
7. Wire the BoolRefnum to the reference input of the property node.
8.
Right click on the property node and select Change to All Write.
9. Move mouse to point to Visible inside property node box, left click and select Value.
10. Wire the boolean indicator from step 3 to the Value input of the property node.
11. On sub-vi front panel, right click on icon and select Show Connector.
12. Click on empty connector spot then click on the new BoolRefnum. Save your sub-vi.
13. On main vi block diagram, connect refernece created in step 2 to the new connector terminal of sub-vi.
14. Save and run.
Here are the modified vi's.

You don't download anything at all. The feature is built into the iPhone 4 already. Your carrier has to support the feature and there might be an extra charge to use it.

I got to that page but clicking on the Subscribe Free had no effect.
Nothing showed in the Podcasts nor the iTunes U.
In fact I also subscribed to Stanford's lectures and despite actually managing to DL them there is still no subscription in iTunes U, just the Intro to Computer Science belatedly.

Completely inappropriate, and they all also not help with volume adjustments. Fades will only apply to Audio Regions in the Tracks area: they will not fade out the complete mix unless you first Bounce it, add that to the Tracks area, apply the Fades with the Fade tool, then Bounce in Place (Again).
Much much better to make use of Track automation to take care of Volume adjustments, and to Fade out the end of the song by applying Track Automation to the Output Channel

Using records that satisfy and do not satisfy join condition

Hi,
My requirement is to use the records which satisfy and do not satisfy the join conditions in ODI.
Can any one explain how to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
SRK

Hi Katukota,
Thanks for the suggestion. When i tried to implement the same with an OUTER JOIN to capture the records that satisfied and not satisfied the join condition, the SQL statement is not getting created properly and as given below
"from DEPT [empty] EMP where (1=1) And (DEPT.DEPTNO=EMP.DEPT(+))"
THere is no ',' operator between the two tables in the FROM Clause. When it is corrected in the ODI operator, the task is executed successfully.
Can you please suggest the way forward to avoid this error?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
SRK

Does the contoured move uses the PID parameters and position feedback?

Hello
I want to use the contourd move to generate a continuous movement,but i do not know if this kind of move just acst like a open-loop move .What i means is does it sends the target position directly to the DAC without the PID loop and position feedback?

The PID controller is still enabled when running the motor in
contouring mode. Otherwise you couldn't do any position control at all.
On a board level the only major difference between contouring mode and
any other mode is the source of the dynamic setpoints passed to the PID
loop through the spline engine. While in contouring mode the setpoint
information comes from the buffer in the onboard RAM, in other modes it
is dynamically calculated by the trajectory generator on the board.

In my humble opinion, Apple's product is better - and completely compatible with Office. It is also about 1/2 as expensive:
