After you import and modify 3D object, you can save it as a preset in the 3D Objects or Favorites category of the Library for future use.
In Motion, open the Library and select the 3D Objects, Favorites, or Favorites Menu category.
Note: For organizational purposes, you may find it useful to create a folder of your own in the Favorites or Favorites Menu category.
From the Layers list or Timeline, drag the customized 3D object to save into the stack at the bottom of the Library.
A reference to the layer is saved as a file on your computer in the /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Motion/Library/ folder (in the 3D Objects, Favorites, or Favorites Menu subfolder). Any modifications made to the 3D object, such as the application of filters or animation, are also saved. The 3D object itself, however, is not moved from its original location on your computer or connected device.
Important: If you move, delete, or rename the source 3D object file, you must reconnect the source file to use the 3D object in a project. For instructions on reconnecting a file, see the following task.
In Motion, open the Media list (in the Project pane), then select the missing 3D object file.
Note: Missing source files appear with a question mark icon in the missing media preview thumbnail.
Open the Media Inspector, then click the Reconnect Media File button under the Linked Objects list.
Motion attempts to find the first missing 3D object file in the list. If the search is successful, a dialog appears with the file selected. If the search is unsuccessful, you must navigate manually to the file’s location, then select the file.
Click Open to reconnect the 3D object file.
