Drag and Drop at Sequence field

[Alatriste]

Hi Tony,

I found out it's possible to drag and drop gameobjects to the sequencer field, and it sort of preset a sequence command. (Camera(default,gameObject))

Is it possible to customize this preset? I think it could be very useful.

Regards,

Hi,

You can only customize the preset for audio files. The "+" menu lets you specify what to do with audio files.

What other presets would be useful?

In my particular case, I'm missing the "SetActive" to true.
And in the dream world, if I hold a specific key (like Control key) then it will be set to False.

I didn't know about this shortcut. It can have many possibilities and perhaps there is a way to be fully customized by the user, so you don't have to try to include all the possibilities.

In version 2.0.6 or 2.0.7, I'll try to add that. You'll be able to configure a primary and secondary (Ctrl-key) command based on the asset type. For example, drag GameObject to SetActive(true). Ctrl+drag to SetActive(false).

Sounds great! Thanks Tony!!

Hey, Tony

Would it be possible to add a CinemachinePriority drag and drop ability?

Also, is there any way for a drop down menu to be added of available commands? I get that this might be a bit tricky with 3rd party support, but having the ability to open a menu of core sequencer commands would be amazing.

Thanks as always,
Nathan

That's a good idea. So if you drop a GameObject with a CinemachineVirtualCamera component into the Sequence field, it will add a CinemachinePriority command.

Also, is there any way for a drop down menu to be added of available commands? I get that this might be a bit tricky with 3rd party support, but having the ability to open a menu of core sequencer commands would be amazing.

The "+" button opens a partial list. Version 2.0.6 will be a small update release. I'll try in version 2.0.7 to add a submenu to "+" that lists all available sequencer commands, including third party/custom commands. Since it won't be able to know the syntax ahead of time, it will just start the command. For example, if you've imported the SLATE Support package, the "+" submenu will have an option that enters "SLATE(", expecting you to fill in the rest.

That would be so awesome!

Thank you.

Just grabbed the 2.06 update and noticed the drop down menu for selecting Sequencer Commands.



Sorry, Tony. There's a few missing. For example, "Send Message", "Set Enabled" etc.

Thank you!

That was an oversight. The list shows all sequencer commands that exist as separate scripts. I forgot to also include the commands that are defined internally without their own scripts. I'll post a patch this week.
