S5 Motion Effect Row Limits


Aubrey

Recommended Posts

I'm working on a project where I'd like to create more than 32 custom motion effect rows for a prop (it's made out of panels). I thought about creating multiple groups of the same prop, but I realized you can't put motion effect rows on a group that only has one prop (or maybe it's for some other reason, but I can't add the rows regardless). Has anyone ever been in a similar situation and found a workaround?

Thanks!

You can add motion effect rows to groups with 1 prop. You just need to select an arrangement other than None -- Horizontal Stack should work fine.

BTW, how many motion effect rows do you need? We can raise the limit in the next release.

Hey Matt,

When I right click on the group to add rows not in the preview builder, the option isn't there, and when I try to do it when creating the group in the preview, it tells me the motion effect rows are limited to 0. Specifically what I'm trying to do is create a 360 panel tree and have a motion effect row for each panel because I'm not sure how else to isolate them. I need 64 rows in order to do that if that's the best way to do so (which is why I was trying to create two groups of the same prop).

Thanks!

Hey Matt,

I just realized you meant "none" as a prop grouping, not "none" when you're creating a motion row. I can add the motion effects now, but if you're still willing to increase the row limit, I won't say no!

Thanks!

Glad you got it working! We'll increase the limit to 64 in the next release.

After talking with more customers, I don't think 64 will be enough. The limit in the next release will be 100.

That's great. I sent you an email with a prop that I am trying to import that will not import correctly in the latest version of S5. Did you get the email and can you check to see if you can figure it out? I was thinking maybe it has something to do with the limit on motion rows. I'm not sure. Thanks,

Eric
