What is the replace function? August 13, 2024 20:53 Updated Replace is used to swap an asset within a scene with another asset. When used for individual assets, the replace function will replace the selected asset and retain its qualities (if applicable). For example, when a character is replaced they retain the same positioning, sizing, and any actions/effects added to the character. Note: Replacing characters with differing animation styles can result in a change of the action assigned to the character (e.g. you replace a character and the replacement is assigned a standing action rather than what the previous character was assigned). This is due to differences in available actions across animation styles. Steps 1. Select an asset in your scene (eg, Characters, Props, Text). You can also select the scene itself by clicking on it in the timeline. Selected scenes are outlined in orange. 2. Click Replace in the toolbar. This will enable Replace Mode and open the asset's corresponding library panel. Replace mode will be indicated above the stage with a black bar. When the replace function is selected, the asset's corresponding library panel will open and this is where you will choose a new asset to replace the existing one. 3. Select a new asset from the corresponding asset panel. 4. The new asset is then added to the scene in place of the old one. The replace function only works in the scene you are actively working in - it does not replace assets throughout an entire video or all scenes (Check out Asset View for this type of functionality).
