How to Arrange Media in PulpMotion

PulpMotion makes arranging media files for an animated slideshow into a drag-and-drop function. Simply click and drag the media to a new position and it's dropped into the new location while existing media files move to make way. Media is displayed openly so you can see what you're working with.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Scroll through the slideshow using the slidebar at the bottom of the PulpMotion working area. The order in which the media appear in the working area is the same order of the media photos in the media tray located beneath the slidebar.

2. Decide on a new order for the media in your PulpMotion slideshow. Click on the photo in the media tray you want to move. Hold the mouse button down. Drag the photo to the new location within the media tray.

3. Release the mouse button and the media within the media tray rearranges to fit the photo into its new position. The media within the slideshow working area recalibrates to reflect the new order in the media tray.

4. Scroll through the PulpMotion slideshow using the slidebar to see the new arrangement of the media.
