CREATING MOTIONS
Using the FXDeko Motion Editor, you can create special effects, called motions,
which are not based on specific graphics. A Motion window contains a motion
script, which is a series of one or more motions. The motion script is saved in a
motion (.mot) file. Once you have created a motion script and saved it in a motion
