Particular 2.0 ships with hundreds of Animation Presets that you can apply to your project. Use the preset animation as it appears, or modify to fit your design by changing the settings, keyframes and other properties.
Shipped Particular presets always start with the prefix t2. They are stored in the After Effects/Presets/Particular 2 Presets folder on your hard drive. If you create your own presets, its a good idea to name them without that prefix to distinguish between the shipped and custom presets. You should also create a separate folder for the new presets.

You may want to share presets, especially ones that you create, between users and computers. Animation presets can be saved and transferred from one computer to another. The filename extension is .ffx.

When you apply a shipped Particular preset, the Time Marker must be set to Time 00:00. This applies the Particular preset to the first frame of the layer. Many of the preset animations are designed to work from the very beginning of the Timeline. Before selecting a preset, make sure the Time Marker is at Frame 1 of the work area:
