i have a problem with my opening titles which i will come back to later, the main problem/help i need is switching scenes. What i need to do as part of the story line is simply change from one scene to another e.g outside animation of a rocket then change to the inside of rocket, how do i do this please.
Also on my title scene i need words appearing about a second or 2 after the other.
I hope i have explained it well enough!
Many thanx in advance.
p.s i am using anime studio 9.5
regards Tony2sugars

Professional workflow: create a separate project for each scene, assemble in video editor.
Workaround: put each scene into a separate group layer and switch visibility.

I can take this one



Make your scene and put all the elements in one group that you create. Unccheck the group (which makes it invisble)
Make scene2, create a group and put all the elements of scene 2 in that group.

Now all you have on your layer window are two groups. deactivate the group scene2 and reactivate scene 1 so we see only the latter. Go to the end of that scene and double click on the group to show the layer property settings.

around the top left of it, there is a checkbox named visibility. uncheck it. you ll see now in the timeline, there s red on the right side of a new keyframe.

reactivate scene 2

go to the sequencer tab of the timeline and push the group all the way to when the scene 1 group is invisible.

go backto frame 0 or frame 1


double click on. scene2 group and uncheck visibility.

go to your scene2 group new starting point and recheck visibility there.

you should now have scene 1 visible until its end. and scene 2 invisible until the end of scene 1

repeat the process for other scenes.

Or

just put all the scenes gathered each in a group into one main group. right click the main group and change it to a switch group. you can now switch from one scene to the other by right clicking the switch group in the layer window and selecting witch one to switch to. it ll create a key frame in the timeline as you do

sorry for the typos , i m on a tablet
