Motion System panel controls

Reference the System tab controls for selection, search, preview, code insertion, and download.

The System tab is a read-only browser for the active workspace's Motion System primitives.

Search filters primitive names and useful values within the selected system. Matching text is highlighted. While search is active, matching sections stay open and display the filtered item count.

Sections

Each non-empty block becomes an accordion section with an icon, title, and count:

  • Brand Colors.

  • Easing Curves.

  • Fonts.

  • Motion Presets.

  • Assets or Collections.

Open or close the section from its header.

Primitive rows

Every row includes:

  • A swatch, curve, font, preset, or asset preview.

  • A name and short detail.

  • An optional direct-copy value, format badge, or download icon.

  • A Use button.

Click Use to reveal the usage block. The label changes to Hide while it is open.

Previews and downloads

  • Click a collection-asset thumbnail to open a larger preview.

  • Lottie collection assets and motion presets use live animation previews.

Empty and error states

The panel provides separate states for sign-in, missing workspace, no Motion Systems, empty system, no search matches, loading, and API errors. Use Retry after a recoverable loading error, or switch workspace when the expected system is not available.
