I wanted to zoom and rotate an image over the background, so I thought I'd use Effects > Movement Templates as a change from rolling my own with KF.
I placed my two still images in track 1 and 2 and selected the track 2 object. Now, I've always assumed that there are two ways of applying an effect:
1. Double click the effect.
2. Drag the effect onto the selected object.
I prefer the first, as it's quickest, so I used that out of habit. But to my surprise I found that failed to work for about 50% of the 60 effects. Instead it applies the effect to the track 1 object, even though that's not selected. For example, Rotate worked as I would expect, a d-click correctly applying the effect to the target. But the one next to it Rotate and zoom failed, applying it to the track 1 non-selected object.
I could give 25-30 other examples of the same behaviour.
IMO, I'd call that a bug, but I'd appreciate others' opinions please.
