Magic Motion

Can't get magic motion to work in Director6. All the other Magic options work fine. I think that I am doing everything correct but nothing happens. If I have several pics next to each other in the timeline & tell it to 'apply to all photo clips' the only thing that happens is a nice transition (blend) between them. How do I get MM to work or is it a program bug?

MM definition: "zooms or pans to an image clip, creating a motion effect in your movie". That is what I am trying to do.

Did you try any other magic motion templates? There are several different themes that have different and unique effects.

Example.......sports, original, romance, etc.

I don't want to use Magic 'Movie', just Magic Motion.

OK........I just ran a test to see if it worked on mine. It did work. Here is what I did:

Insert pictures into movie time line>
Select all pictures in the movie time line>(select the first picture then scroll to the end of the time line hold shift and select the last picture.....this will select all)
On the left hand side right above the time line there is a "slideshow" button> Is that what you have been selecting?>
Select slide show button>
Select the motion theme>
then play movie to see

Please forgive me if you have already been trying this route.
If this does not work you will more than likely need to do a uninstall/reinstall
