  • 1.  Delay on scene offline

    Hi, how can I do the following?

    I want to take online a scene, and delay the offline status of the previous scene by five or ten seconds.

    You can't, if a scene is online on a layer, a new scene on same layer will directly set offline the old one. What is the goal ?

    I'm not sure to understand what you want to do. Any complete video of visual effect you want to achieve ?

    Hi luisriera,

    I'm assuming that you have a scene on layer 0 and a transition on layer 1. You want layer 0 to go off while the transition on layer 1 is full screen (hiding the cut)? You could do that with scene directors. If you put a scene director in the scene that's on layer 0 that has a "Take Offline" event in it, you can simply call that scene director from the transition scene at the moment you want the layer 0 scene to go offline.

    However, if you're wanting another scene to replace the one on layer 0 under the transition, that's not so easy to do.

    James.

    You might be able to do this using visual logic. Using a B2B transition, you could have the B2B Out scene director be very long, like 5 seconds. Then the incoming B2B scene director would be the one animation you want. Add some logic to check the other layer when it comes on, you should be set.

    Also, how are you triggering these? You could build the timing into a custom control to SeqOut that takeID after the desired amount of time. Since you're on different layers it would be easy enough.

    Just a few other ideas.
