A few things that are driving me insane in MC and Marquee

Some things that are driving me crazy. Welcome any ideas that makes this faster.

    In one bin with title mattes of different colors, in icon view it does show the icons as color squares if you select all and fn-left arrow (or HOME) but if anything moves (for instance changing workspaces), it goes back to generic icons and you have to constantly fix it over again. It also stubbornly refuses to go back to filling the window even when bins and workspace are saved. 


    Marquee.  (Love the autotitler btw).  But when editing some of the titles, Marquee saves as a new title wherever it wants to.  Saves to bin but doesn't ask what bin. When saving all to bin, I can get it into a specific folder, but when editing, not so much.   So I end up having to drag them all out of the sequences folder.


    Marquee appears to be unable to edit two titles.  Even when you close out of the current one, you have to actually quit the program to get it to open another title.  So the workflow has been, edit title, cmd-b (save to bin), at which point it saves it wherever it darn well pleases, then quit completely, then start over to edit a new title. Also, I've caught it behaving badly and running multiple copies.  Seriously?


    Marquee - The color palette doesn't match the other color palettes in Avid, so in order to, say match a border to a title color, I have to go back to Marquee, pull up a different palette, pull the RGB values, type them in the Avid palette and so on. I wish I could just access the Apple palette in Marquee.


    Bin - wish it were possible to specify the folder a new bin goes in.  I'm doing hundreds and keep having to drag each one down into its folder. It seems bizarre that such a basic thing isn't possible.

     

    Overall I'm warming to MC on some things so that's a good sign.
