7.0 PLEO Preview
Window
The PLEO window is intended for
reviewing
performance skits on your PC before uploading them to PLEO, or writing
them to a flash card.
It can also be used for editing PLEO's posture directly if you
like.
The PLEO Window is similar to the small motion editor preview.
However it is larger, and has controls for navigating the
performance -- similar to the Windows Media player.
Motion & sound are synchronized together.
The "PLEO Window" can be enlarged full-screen size, although a 3D
accelerated video card might be required for good performance.
Toggle the PLEO Window on/off from "View Menu -> PLEO Window".

Editing within the PLEO window is easy.
First select edit mode by clicking the pencil icon.
Second, select a frame within the motion editor. Note
you cannot edit the first or last frames of a motion using the PLEO
window.
Lastly, move the mouse over PLEO's head, eyes, mouth, legs, tail,
