Updating Views Across Sequences
« on: November 16, 2019, 08:33:02 PM »
Scenario:
Create a layout.
Create sequence 1 using that layout.
Create sequence 2 using that layout.
Add to layout while in sequence 1.

How do I get the changes made to a view while re-working sequence 1 to show up across other sequences?

I know that views (Master and otherwise) are tied to each sequence.  But in most of my sequences, we would like to use the same views - even after updating.

Edit display elements in any sequence and create yourself a View. Then if you select that view in the other sequence it will automatically add all the missing models.

What I do is have one view called "Ordered Master View". When creating a sequence or updating a sequence I go to display elements and click on that view and "make master view".  There is no automagic batch render operation to make that happen to all your sequences - so just do it as you need to in each sequence.

When you create a new sequence you are supposed to select your "Ordered Master View" on the wizard page that says "Select A View" and then you automatically get the order you want.

Just going by what you said.
