Am I misunderstanding nesting?
by Dylan Reeve (Sycophant) on May 9, 2008 at 12:45:36 am

Let's imagine I have a sequence called "Ep 1 - Part 1", then I create a new sequence called "Ep 1 - Compile Master". I open the Part 1 sequence in the Viewer and drag/edit into the Compile to nest it in that sequence.

I would then expect that if I make a change to the "Ep 1 - Part 1" sequence in my project that it would be reflect in the Compile, but this isn't the case. Instead I seem to have two copies of the sequence now, one that's available from the Browser, and one that I can only reach by double-clicking on the nested sequence in my Compile sequence.

Is this right? It certainly was my impression that a nested sequence was more like a link to another sequence, but now it appears to be more like a copy of a sequence (which seems much less useful).

I haven't got the manual handy at the moment (I'm at home now) but the stuff I've read online seems a little ambiguous on exactly how this relationship works.
