1 Saving a Motion Graphics template lets you give your colleagues the ability to edit specific
attributes of a composition without sacrificing stylistic control.


2 To add a control to the Essential Graphics panel, drag a property from the Timeline panel.


3 To organize controls, group them. Choose Add Group from the menu at the bottom of the
Essential Graphics panel, name the group, and drag controls into it. You can also add
comments to help users understand your intention.


4 You can share a Motion Graphics template by exporting it to a shared Creative Cloud library,
the local templates folder on the same computer, or a .mogrt file that you distribute to your
colleagues.
