Tweaking Sequences.

by Jacob S. · in Verve · 07/20/2010 (12:14 pm) · 2 replies

When import nodes from a path then run a camera along it the camera atleast appears to speed up and slow down. I'm not sure if this is just a visual effect of moving along 3 axies at once and perspective or not and there is no easy way of adjusting for it currently.

If you're looking for a useful feature to add a right click "add time" function would be very helpful.

Currently I'm using another program to parse the sequence file and push every node back a specified amount of time after a specified time has passed and add time to the duration and the duration of a director track.

Dragging 39+ nodes around every time I want to slow down the camera between two nodes gets a bit tedious.

You can move the time cue to a point in time, then shift-click it on another section. This will select a section of time and allow you to right-click and insert the same length of time either left or right of the cue.

For example: Cue is at 0, Shift-Click at time 1000 (1sec). Right-Click on the timeline and select "Insert Time Before". This will move the entire sequence forward 1 second and give you a an empty time space from 0 to 1000.

With a selected segment of time, you can also delete that section of your sequence.

Edit: Seems to work but sometimes it only selects the peice above the time track. When that happens you have to go click on your orginal place to get it to select the time track as well.
