Common Questions
- Which layer types are supported for the Once and Loop functions?
-
Shape, Text, Solid, Pre-composition, and Footage (Still
images/Video) layers are supported.
Additionally, when reusing a pre-composed layer generated by roop, the system is designed to prevent redundant pre-composition. This allows for the efficient optimization of project resources.
- How does it behave when there are multiple cameras?
- roop always operates based on the Active Camera (the camera currently used for rendering).
- Is it possible to change the random positions when executing the Loop function?
- Yes, it is. You can change the random position
patterns either collectively or for each individual
layer. Additionally, you can add offset values to the
position of each layer, allowing for fine-tuned
adjustments.
* For detailed instructions, please refer to "2. FAQ" in the in-script help.
