New Information for Motion Developers

Motion developers now have detailed information available about the XML format that encodes a Motion project.

A new document, Motion XML File Format, describes the XML encoding for the Motion scene graph, scene objects, related parameters, and media files in a project.

Using this information, developers can directly edit the Motion XML project file and change a Motion project offline. The final chapter of the document includes examples of changing text, importing camera data, and replacing media files.

With this Motion XML information in hand, developers now have the opportunity to create automation tools for Motion tasks, or to more closely integrate Motion projects into the studio workflow.
