Open Same Track Types

When you want to modify the objects that have data on similar tracks, you can toggle the visibility of the tracks at the same time. Please note that the tracks must belong to objects under the same group in the Track Menu List, such as the Actor, Prop, Accessory, Light and Camera groups.

This function is especially useful for you when creating a conversation scene with multiple characters.

  1. Prepare a project with multiple objects (in this case, two characters).
  2. Select both of the characters.
  3. In the Timeline panel, press down the Object Related Track button to show the tracks of the objects you have selected.
  4. Press down the Open Same Track Types button on the toolbar.
  5. Click the down arrow button on one of the character's base tracks and activate the boxes of the sub-tracks you want to show / hide (in this case, the Viseme track).

    ClosedNote:

    You are able to swap the order of step 3 and 4.

  6. The Viseme tracks of the two actors are instantly displayed because the Open Same Track Types button is pressed down.
  7. You may then add data to the objects. For this example, the conversation voice clips for both characters.
  8. Keep adding or editing data within these tracks until you are satisfied with the result.
    ClosedNote:

    Make sure the Open Same Track Types button is pressed down (in green) when you want to synchronize the track visibility of objects. The button will be toggled off if you edit a track not belonging to the last-selected object (the base object).
