Show Effects
Show effects provide a convenient way to package complex scene object hierarchies and animation sequences into a single object. They solve issues with scalability and simplify the act of re-using designs in future shows. Show effects are the cornerstone functionality that enable the Composer editor.
Show Effects package complex animation and hierarchy info into a single object
Sequences provide for a method of animating one effect in many different ways, supplying the user with a way to choose from a number of looks embedded in a single object.
States provides a convenient way to initialize a show effect with a certain set of parameters. Typically they are used to place an effect into a starting state to be used with a sequence.
Show Effects were introduced in version 2024.1. There are automated tools to convert legacy objects into show effects to simply using the new workflow.
