Import and export command sets

Import and export command sets

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

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 enter a name in the Save As field.

  3. Click OK.

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

Import a set of shortcuts

  1. Do one of the following:

    • In the Command Editor, click the pop-up menu in the upper-left corner, then choose Import.

    • Choose Motion > Commands > Import.

      An Open dialog appears.

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

    The new command set is added to the Motion > Commands submenu in the menu bar and in the pop-up menu in the Command Editor. If you use a set with the same name, a dialog appears and asks you to rename the set.
