Organize your saved custom text styles
1. Quit Final Cut Pro.
2. In the Finder, hold down the Option key and choose Go > Library.
3. Navigate to /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Motion/Library/Text Styles/.
The Text Styles folder contains the custom text styles you’ve created. Each text style
has three files: a file with the extension .molo, a file with the extension .png that is the
preview of the text style, and a file with “_menu” appended to the end of the style’s
name (also with a .png extension). The name of the text style appears in the preset
menu with the style’s attributes applied to the name.
4. Create one or more folders and drag the corresponding .molo files and .png files to
those folders.
The next time you open Final Cut Pro, the folders appear as categories in the pop-up menu
at the top of the Text inspector.
