Places - change sentence to say "to" instead of "in"

I created a new fact type called Moved (and a shared fact type for couples).  The sentence customization is

[Person] moved [Place:to] [Desc] [Date].

The sentence the RM creates still says Jane Doe moved in New York from Paris on 25 Dec 1925.

How can I get the sentence to say Jane Doe moved to New York ....??

Thanks 🙂

 

[Person]< moved to [Place:plain]>[ from [Desc:plain]< on the [Date]>.

 

Have a go at this. Regards Wayne b

Thank you!  Thank you!  Thank you!  This is something that's been bugging me for YEARS!!

Your suggestion works, except for the [ from [Desc:plain].

Here is what prints

John Doe moved to New York [ from [Desc:plain] on the 25 Dec 1900.

Since for most people I don't have anything in the description, it I'm going to leave that out.

Here is the sentence I am going to use.  It is perfect for my purposes!

<[Date]> [Person]< moved to [Place:plain]>.

If some have the description then maybe think about this.

<[Date]> [Person]< moved to [Place:plain].>< [Desc]>

If the field description is empty then no text becomes visible. I have also messed with the full stops. The [Desc] has a full stop in the text when entered.

Thanks very much!  Some do have a description.  You're getting too technical for me when you talk about full stops 😉  I am so appreciative of the many users in this group who have helped me!  Have a great night and GO ASTROS!
