Eyeon Talk:Manual/Fusion 6/Saver

From VFXPedia

The new relative numbering option isn't covered yet. Is it just the old sequence start checkbox renamed?

-- Here is a short story behing this change: www.pigsfly.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6212. So, if Saver-relative Numbering is on, the Sequence Offset assigns numbering to the output sequence based on the global in time of the inbound branch. Otherwise, it shifts the numbering relative to the timeline. --Gringo 16:27, 5 October 2010 (EDT)

-- Thanks. The saver's starting point in the timeline doesn't change the frame numbers though. Is that expected behaviour? (I'm asking to make sure my new version of the "Loader from Saver" script can handle these frame offsets correctly :-)) --Tilt 18:16, 5 October 2010 (EDT)

--Yes, I'm not sure that this control name explains its purpose explicitly, because it has nothing to do with the saver's range on the Timeline. It's rather related to the branch time range. That's why I asked for an option to shift frame numbers based on the timeline numbers. Please, see this example which shows how unintuitive it used to be most of the time: www.pigsfly.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6212&view=findpost&p=24065. In current version of Fusion you need to switch Saver-relative Numbering on to get the old-style behaviour. Nice to know that you take care of this wonderful script :)
