Is there any way to preview the animation of the various motion graphics templates in the Essential Graphics panel? No way to know what the templates contains and/or does.

Drop 'em on a sequence & play them ... only way to do it.

Hi David,

There are a couple of things you can try. One is to hover and scrub over the graphic icon in the Essential Graphics panel. Another is to click the "i" icon and open the graphic in its own panel. Click on the graphic and press the Space bar. It will play the graphic back if your system is powerful enough. Does that work for you?

 

Thanks,
Kevin

In 2020 is still the only way, right?

Some do have a preview when hovering from left to right.

      Thanks, Neil.  Too bad the only option is sooo 90's.

        Remember this EGP is in its infancy ... it's not a finished tool, probably will always be expanded, realistically.

        So ... feature request away, as they've actually had design engineers on this forum (very rare) asking for the requests for this ...

        There are a few new things they discussed in the "rollout" demo at IBC a few weeks back, so some things will change whenever the drop the next release. Don't know the full list.
