DataKeyTime
DataKeyTime plugin moves a defined keyframe on the animation timeline to the time specified by the value of the DataField. The keyframe must have a unique name assigned to it.
When used with the Remote Container option, multiple keyframes of the same animation can be manipulated by multiple DataKeyTime plugins.
Unique Parameters
-
Keyframe Type: Defines the type of animation property to effect: keyframe, Stop or Pause point, Action tag. Note that any property selected must be named uniquely. Otherwise the plugin will not effect the selected point.
-
Director Name: Defines the name of the director containing the stop point or pause point to effect. The name is defined in the stage editor of Viz. This parameter is enabled when KeyFrame Type is Stop/Pause Point or Action.
-
Channel Name: Defines the name of the channel containing the action tag to effect. The name is defined in the stage editor of Viz. This parameter is enabled when KeyFrame Type is Action.
-
Keyframe Name: Defines the keyframe that will be controlled by the plugin. The name is defined in the stage editor of Viz and it must be unique.
-
Time Format: Defines if incoming data value will be processed as Frame units (video frames) or seconds.
Note: Key frames are moved to the absolute time value in the timeline. Abnormal behavior might occur when moving key frames on the timeline, since key frames can change their sequential order in the animation.
