    Lesson 2. Creating Motion Graphics > Opening a Project from the File Browser

    Opening a Project from the File Browser

    In Lesson 1, you learned how to open a Motion project using the File menu. Now let's look at another way to open a project, from the File Browser. Our goal in this exercise is to navigate to the Lesson_02 folder, locate the project 2-1 Motion Graphics start, and open it without leaving the File Browser.

    1.
    Launch Motion, if it is not already open.

    2.
    Choose File > Close to close the current project, if you have a project open.

    3.
    In the File Browser, near the top, click the Path pop-up menu to open it.

    The Path pop-up menu shows recent paths you have searched in the File Browser.

    4.
    In the Path pop-up menu, choose MOTION_INTRO Book Files.

    The MOTION_INTRO Book Files folder opens in the lower pane of the File Browser, revealing all your lesson folders.

    NOTE

    If you do not see MOTION_INTRO Book Files in the Path pop-up menu, click the Desktop icon in the upper pane, and then navigate to APTS_MOTION_INTRO > MOTION_INTRO Book Files.

    5.
    In the lower pane of the File Browser, double-click the Lesson_02 folder to open it.
