In the Sequencer’s Motion Effect Generator, if you create an effect and want to save it for later use, you can save it to the Favorite Effects area (bottom center).

To save the current Effect Generator settings as a favorite: first click a folder in the favorites tree where the effect should be saved (the first time click on “Favorites”), then click Save.

To recall a favorite (i.e. load it into the Effect Generator), just double click on it.

To move an entry up or down: select an entry by left-clicking on it, then use the up and/or down arrows on the toolbar to move it to the desired position.  Alternatively, you can right-click on the entry, then select Move Up or Move Down from the pop-up menu.

You can move effects from one folder to another simply by dragging the effect to the new folder.  You can even drag entire branches of the tree if you need to move them.

To delete an entry or an entire branch: right-click the node to delete, then select Delete from the pop-up menu.

To add a new branch to the tree: right-click on the parent folder, then select New Subfolder from the popup menu.  Enter the name for the new folder when prompted, then click OK.

To rename an entry (folder or favorite effect): right-click on the node, then select Rename from the pop-up menu.  Enter the new name when prompted, then click OK.

To copy an effect: right-click on the node, then select Copy from the pop-up menu.  Enter the name for the copy when prompted, then click OK.

To export favorites to a file: right-click on a folder, then select Export from the pop-up menu.  Select the directory and file name, then click OK.  All children of the selected folder will be exported.  This file will have an LPEFAV extension.

To import favorites from a file: right-click on a folder, then select Import from the pop-up menu.  Select the file to import, then click OK.  Imported favorites will become children of the selected folder.
