AutoDesk Smoke :: Make PIP In Timeline With Axis

Aug 29, 2012

I'm trying to make a PIP in a timeline with Axis. PIP is a easy thing so I made it of course.

But the problem is When I use multiple PIPs. There's no Global axis like in Action, so I couldn't control PIPs at once. I thought make a Gap effect with axis or Container would be work, but It didn't work as I thought.

Do I have to make a mask for PIP? Is there any way to move, rotate, scale them together easily? & Axis could have only one image? In animation view, there's a Global axis and a image axis.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Timeline Axis Blend Modes

Jul 10, 2012

It would be nice to have the full set of blend modes available to the AXIS tool in the timeline.

Quite often the most used blend modes for quick color treatments....Overlay, Hard Light and Soft Light etc...are not available in the timeline AXIS soft effect.

Is this a limitation of the soft effect as opposed to using ACTION or say Blend&Comp nodes?

New users would probably not find where the extra layer blend modes where, and may simply think that Smoke lacks these most used blend modes.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Motion Blur In Axis?

Jan 3, 2012

Is there any way to turn on motion blur in Axis on the time line like you can in Action?

I looked in setup and it doesn't seem to be there, hoping I'm just missing something and I don't have to hall this text into action and back each time it gets updated.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Add Axis In GMASK Schematic

Mar 28, 2013

I'm in CFX in the Modilar Keyer. I loaded a setup previously with GMASKs previously applied on a HD shot. I now need to scale the GMASK for a 4K HD shot (200%). I was told to go in the GMASK schematic (the one that looks like action) and add a parent axis to move all the masks at once. WHen I'm in GMASK schematics I don't have access to a node bin. Where do I add an AXIS to parent all my masks in there?

AutoDesk Smoke :: No Video In Axis Tracker

AutoDesk Smoke :: Axis And Field Rendering

Aug 14, 2012

I'm working with 1080i50 footage. Interlaced, upper field (F1). When I apply an Axis effect to a clip in the timeline an render that, the result is wrong.

I'm not sure what exactly it is. Either the fields are inverted or somehow 'melted' into one frame. In the Axis editor the Interlaced/Progressive switch is set to Interlaced. If I set it to Progressive the rendered result is ok.

AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Create Push While Using Axis Transition

Feb 15, 2013

Using the axis transition how would I go about creating a push, it sounds so simple but I've been screwing around for a little bit and haven't done it.

I've done a "slide in" on my incoming clip but thats just half of it. Also, I saw somewhere that you can reveal the axis nodes on a timeline axis effect, but I'll be damned it I cant remember how.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Access Timeline Within CFX

Nov 3, 2012

Is there a way to access the timeline within CFX ( much like in Flame ) ? I see the timing button but this doesn't seem to have the same control as a timeline for a specific clip.

Also, is there a way other then "explode one" or "explode all" to go within a CFX within a CFX ( pre comp ) ? i.e. a setup that is then put within the BG of action.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Hide All Axis Icons In Action Apart From Selected Ones?

1) Is there a way to hide all axis icons in Action apart from selected ones? Even though they turn grey it's often very hard to see the selected one in big comps.

2) In HD text module how can I see the full picture? While postioning text I can't see the bottom of the picture on either the preview monitor or the broadcast monitor.

While in CFX, Action, Text edit, Axis etc, is there a way to see the output of the timeline?

AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Export Timeline With Handles

Sep 10, 2012

I have an edit and now I want to export as DPX sequence. A couple of questions:

First, is there an easy way to take a single edit and export it with handles? I realize that I can make a subclip but is there an easier/better way to do this?

I can't find an automated way to set handles on export. I have about 175 shots that I need to export .

AutoDesk Smoke :: Copying Gap Effects On The Timeline?

Aug 24, 2011

It is possible to duplicate/copy a clip/gap effect on the timeline? Or do you *have to* drag/copy it to a Source Area first? In this particular case, I've got 3 gap effects that I'm essentially using as adjustment layers...for some reason I thought I could hold down F & drag them somewhere else in the timeline which would create a duplicate and drag them to wherever I dropped them. But maybe not...? In the meantime, I just copied them to a Source Area, and then dropped them back on the timeline where I needed them, which worked just fine.

AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Extract Section Of Timeline

Oct 25, 2012

How do you extract a section of a timeline but keep sync further down the timeline?

I wanted to take a section out near the start, it just had V and A1, A2. There was A3-6 further down the timeline but they hadn't started yet.

For some reason I can't get Smoke to cut a track that hasn't got any media before that point. So, at the section I needed to remove I couldn't place a cut and so when I removed a section A3-6 stayed where they were.

I also tried marking in to out and extract but again it left the other audio tracks.

Such a simple thing, but I can't work out how to do it

AutoDesk Smoke :: Timeline Contextual Menu

Oct 8, 2012

With PR4 the right click contextual menu for the timeline seems to have been re-arranged to accomodate new features.

As a result, when you right-click a timeline element to remove all effects you have to move your pointer up through a list of about 15 items to reach the "Remove Effect" command.

There also appears not to be an assignable keyboard shortcut to remove all effects from a selected timeline element. (apart from Option+Clicking on the effect in the effect bar which just removes a single item).

Would it not make sense to have this remove effect command at the bottom so that it appears right near your pointer when you activate the menu?A keyboard shortcut binding would be ideal as I realise the contextual menus are probably in a state of constant change at the moment.

AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Source To Timeline?

In 2012 it was very easy to select a gap segment and click color source in the soft effects. In 2013 it appears to be much more difficult, you need to create it in a folder then edit it into a sequence. Am I missing something? I wish there was a color source option in the effects ribbon.

AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Select Clips On Timeline

Oct 30, 2012

I have got some questions:

1. How can I select many clips on the timeline? (I work with a Wacom tablet.) When I press the pen onto the tablet and move it, I can only pull the gap. In connect fx it works, when I hold cmd.

2. If I set markers in the timeline, is there a way to also see them in connect fx?

3.There is a function in Final Cut: When I I select a clip from the timeline and press "f" , I can go on working on its source clip in the viewer. Is there something similar in smoke? I cannot find the name for this function, so I cannot search for it in the keyboard shortcuts.

4. If I render something, is there a way that Smoke automatically copies the file (without copying the effects)? The reason for that question is: I applied timewarp to a clip, then I wanted to go on working on the clip in connect fx, but the length of the clip changed - it was shorter. When I went on working in action and put some lense flares and rendered it, everything was bended and looked weird. It looked great but I did not intend to do something like this.

The next questions are no real questions but rather problems.

5. When I work with audio (audio clip locked), I cannot really cut on the music, because 5a. sometimes the amplitudes do not match the music. An example: There is no amplitude, but the music goes on for 2 seconds. 5b. And when it is correct and I cut on the beat and render it, it is not sync anymore some moments later or when I restart smoke. (It only displaces 1 or 2 seconds from the sync.)

6. Since I have updated from pre-release 4 to pre-release 5, I cannot export anymore. I have read a lot on blogs, but I could not really find my problem. I cannot even press the export button.
