1. Construct At Frame – this is useful for when multiple dynamic stack/transform/filter animations target the same source (or filter) in OBS. Without setting to ‘Construct At Frame’ when a stack get’s ‘played’, if any stack/transform/filter animations are dynamic, it only retrieves the current settings once. This means it applies the same start parameters regardless of where they are in the frame.

Construct at frame, means that instead of calculating the stack/filter/transform animation at the initial play, it calculates at the frame instead, while it is animating.

Only available for Dynamic Stack/Filter/Transform animations. Timing can be less accurate

Scrub Timeline

^{Note: While scrubbing through the timeline, keep in mind that it may not perfectly reflect the final animation’s behaviour. It’s primarily a tool to help you fine-tune the timing.}

Modes:

If while scrubbing the timeline it’s not quite showing as intended, try the different mode options.

^{Note: Refresh Browser, Stop Stack and OBS Hotkeys are not represented while scrubbing.}

^{Note: While scrubbing on audio that is ‘pinned’ will be heard.}

^{Note: 1/4 and 1/2 FPS animations are shown as FULL}

^{Note: Send Message to Browser only works if you scrub slowly over that frame.}
