Whose bright idea was to remove radial wipe with the rest of the obsolete effects?
I have a task to create a simple animaned diagram with 99% of a circle of one color and 1% of the rest.
In the previous Premiere Pro versions there was a Radial wipe effect. So I created an Essential graphics layer with two shapes of different colors in it, then placed the radial effect above both the shapes and animated the effects. Thus I could get a simple clean animation of a circle wiping in, with this small bit of another color appearing later. Moreover the radial wipe effect had a straight 100% scale so I could get whatever per cent I needed in no time. This whole process took me 1-2 minutes.
Now I realize that the radial wipe effects is gone. So how do I create radial diagrams now? It's nonsense to go to Ae everytime for such simple things. And the radial wipe transition effects a layer at a time, so I'll have to nest the essential graphics layers created separately. This is not convenient at all.
Don't you think this was a silly decision to remove a tool that not only worked but also immensely sped up the video editing workflow?
