Merge Timelines

Post by Nicolas delight »

Hello ,

In my next show I have to trigger two timelines in a row every hour (6 mn show with audio). The new schedule tool allow me to trigger the first timeline easily but I'd like the second one to start straight after the first one.
As the order of the different timelines hasn't been decided yet, Is there a way to merge 2 timelines in one or copy a cue segment (with opacity and groups ) within the timeline or to another one ?
Or can we use a macro to trigger the second timelines when the first one end ?

Thanks.

Hello Nicolas delight,

The easiest way to trigger the second timeline after the first one has finished is to use the Scheduler. In the Scheduler, the following settings are required:

* Triggers: Timeline > Complete (desired timeline)
* Actions: Timeline > Play (desired timeline)

The first timeline shouldn’t play in a loop; otherwise, it won’t be considered complete.

You also need to know which timeline will play after one has finished. If this needs to be random, you have to use a MADRIX Macro. If you need help creating such a macro, please send us an email at info[at]madrix[dot]com.
