2.12 Duplicating, Exporting and Importing a Sequence

A Sequence can be duplicated, and it can be exported or imported as a .seq file.

2.12.1 Duplicate a Sequence

1. [Right-click] on the Sequence tab to open a contextual menu.

2. Select {Duplicate} from the menu; this will create a copy of the Sequence.

Problems related to Cues and Mappings might be experienced when duplicating a Sequence. Caution is advised.

2.12.2 Export a Sequence

1. [Right-click] on the Sequence tab to open a contextual menu.

2. Select {Export} from the menu. A dialog box will open and ask for the name and location of the exported Sequence.

3. Enter the exported Sequence file name and choose a location. Click on the [Save] button.

2.12.3 Import a Sequence

1. Select {File > Import sequence} from the Timeline Editor menu. A dialog box will open and ask which Sequence file to load.

2. Select the .seq file you want to load. Click on the [Open] button.

This action will add the imported Sequence as new tab in the Timeline

.

Importing a Sequence into another project is possible, but given that the Timeline is Screen-based, the 3D Scene objects corresponding to the Timeline Screens need to be present in the 3D Scene prior to the import. Cues will have to be rebuilt because they are project dependent for the most part.
