Digital Workshop

Though I love Opus Pro and have created many programs and screen savers using it, I have always wished for one thing... "A sliding time bar” or at least that is what I would call it. When I create a program and make a change I must run the program to view the change. The problem with this is that I might have to wait until the end of the program to view my changes. A horizontal slide bar incremented in minutes and seconds would allow you to slide the bar to the point just before your change and allowing you to be much more productive. Is there any chance we'll see that in Opus Pro 05 or whatever version comes out next?

Seconded.

Not so much for the interactive stuff but I've done up a few rolling demos and kicking my heels waiting for it to run through to the part of the timeline I wanted to test could get tiresome.

I'll support that, too.
I have posted similar requests about the ability to see the result of things as you construct them (I suggested onion-skinning, which is much the same - multi-layer preview in real time).

I do think timeline scrubbing is essential, and most other animation generating programmes seem to support it.

I'm getting an incredible feeling of Deja vu

Yes and if you'll notice, I posted below your topic "I didn't notice this when I posted basically the same thing." So I apologize for the redundancy.

I have brought this up MANY times in the past, and besides... it won't hurt for them to see it more than once. Perhaps that way they will hear us.

I knew that...

but what better way to get the topic at the top of the list and read again...

I agree - when designing master pages that have a lot of effects and actions the facility to place a flag (oops - sounds a bit authorwarish)
and "play from here" would really increase productivity!

A really great idea needs to be bumped to the top every now and then.


Come on DW... we know you can do this.
