has anyone else noticed that when you render iMovie 3 files, that the titles are off center. when i did some titles recently and imported them into fcp3, i found out just how much they are off.

i had to adjust them by 29.47 (degrees?) to the right for them to appear centered.

has anyone else had this problem?

I'm glad I'm not alone on this. I've tried adding spaces in front to move it to the right. It works but is hit or miss.

It's been 3 months since the last update for iMovie...not that long but Apple needs to fix this if they try to sell their systems with free movie editing software as an incentive.

yeah, i've read that avid is also doing a free NLE system this summer. i read in video producer that it is already out, but have not checked the avid site yet.

apple cannot afford to lose this one.

btw: i'm back using iMovie 2 because i simply could not take all of IM3's quirks.

Anyone know if the iMovie 3.0.3 update solves this? I just noticed this problem today, as I did a quick project before I learned of the new update...
