LiveFonts
These settings in the Cache pane of the Preferences window determine how LiveFonts
are cached (stored) by Motion. For more information about LiveFonts, see
Using LiveFonts .
Cache intermediate LiveFont sizes: This checkbox turns caching of LiveFont data on or
off. This option is on by default, as it improves performance if you frequently use LiveFonts.
Cache Path: Click Choose to define a custom location to cache your LiveFont data. Because
this cache can grow quite large, it is advised that you set this to a drive other than your
primary system drive.
Delete LiveFont Cache: Over time, your LiveFont cache can grow to take up many
gigabytes of disk space. To recover this space, you can delete the cache by clicking this
button.
