Apple Motion 4 - Manual (Page 24)

In the default window layout, File Browser, Library, and Inspector tabs reside in a utility
window on the left side of the Canvas. If you choose the Cinema layout, two utility
windows are displayed, one on the left of the Canvas, containing the File Browser and
Library, and one on the right side of the Canvas, containing the Inspector. As each of the
three tabs can appear independently of one another, they are treated as separate entities
below.
File Browser Library Inspector
File Browser
In the utility window, the File Browser tab displays all of the files on your computer.
Navigating the File Browser is similar to navigating a window in the Finder. You can drag
items directly from the File Browser into your project.
File Browser Preview Area
The top area of the File Browser contains a preview of the selected layer. The Preview
area includes both a visual preview, complete with a Play button to show the multiple
frames of moving footage, and text information about the file: filename, media type, file
size, and frame rate. The Preview area also contains an audio mute button.
