 We wrote MotionScope after asking our physics teacher friends what tools they would like to have available to teach and/or study the concepts of projectile motion -- concepts such as velocity, acceleration, momentum, and energy.

 Like all of Vizy's applications, MotionScope is written in Python, source code is provided, and it can be customized.

+====== Importing, Exporting, and sharing MotionScope projects ======
+Through the powers of the Internet (and Google Drive), you can export your MotionScope project and share with others.  And they can import your project with its wonderful footage and data, which are zipped up and uploaded to Google Drive upon export.
+===== Importing a project =====
+From the **File** menu select **Import...** to bring up the import dialog.  Copy the share key into the text box and click the **Import** button.  Vizy will then get busy downloading the zip file, unzipping, and installing the project.  Easy!  Note, you don't need to have [[#Configuring Google services|Google services]] configured to import projects.

+Below is a share key for our bouncing balls project.  **Copy and paste it to give it a try on your Vizy!**

+==== Exporting a project ====
+From the **File** menu select **Export** to bring up the export dialog.  Click the **Export** button.  Vizy will then get busy zipping up the project and copying it to Google Drive.  When it's finished it will present you will a **Copy share key** button.

+Pressing this will copy the "share key" to your clipboard.  The share key is just a jumble of text.  You can save the key to a text file, email it, etc.  With this key, someone can import your project.
