Importing and Exporting Command Sets

Once you save a command set, you may want to export it to create a backup or to
share the new set with another user. Exported sets are saved in a file that can be
imported back into Motion at a later time.

To export a set of keyboard shortcuts:

1

If necessary, use the pop-up menu to activate the command set you want to export,
then do one of the following:

 In the Command Editor, choose Export from the pop-up menu.
 Choose Motion > Commands > Export.

A Save As dialog appears.

2

Navigate to the location where you want to save the exported set, then type a name in
the Save As field.

3

Click OK.

The file is saved in the location you chose, with the “.commandset” filename extension.

To import a set of shortcuts:

1

Do one of the following:

 In the Command Editor, choose Import from the pop-up menu.
 Choose Motion > Commands > Import.

An Open dialog appears.

2

Navigate to the location where you have stored a command set file, select it, then click
Open.

The new command set is added to the Motion > Commands submenu and the pop-up
menu in the Command Editor.

If you are already using a set with the same name, a dialog appears and prompts you
to rename the set.
