Play graphic layers in a specific sequence

Sequencing is a powerful feature that lets you play graphic layers in a specific order.

  1. Right-click anywhere on the row of column labels to add the Duration, Next Layer, and Delay columns to your Project List.Screenshot 2023-07-18 at 2.07.30 PM.png
  2. Set up a new channel and populate it with graphic layers.

2. Make sure the layers you desire to use for your sequence have a customized duration. Graphic layers will have a no limit duration by default. This is denoted by "-- -- --" in the Duration column for that graphic layer. Double-click the cell that corresponds to the layer to enter a custom duration (minutes:seconds;frames). When a custom duration has been set for a graphic layer, the Next Layer cell for that graphic will become available.

3. Use the Next Layer drop down menu to select which graphic layer from that channel will play next. 

4. If you assign a graphic layer to play next on itself, it will initiate a loop sequence and the graphic layer will play indefinitely until you play it out.
