Import image sequence as animation

I can’t seem to find a way to import a image sequence into Pro Motion as an animation (at least not an easy way). Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Please have a look at File/New Project/Create from single Images…
And appending to an existing project: File/Animation/Append single Images…

Cool! It works!! Thank you for a quick reply :+1::+1::+1:

hello Jan. when I import the image sequence, it mess the sort. Example:
instead of:
image sequence0
image sequence1
image sequence2
image sequence3
image sequence4
image sequence5
image sequence6
image sequence7
image sequence8
image sequence9
image sequence10
image sequence11
image sequence12
it sort them like this:
image sequence0
image sequence1
image sequence10
image sequence11
image sequence12
image sequence2
image sequence3
image sequence4
image sequence5
image sequence6
image sequence7
image sequence8
image sequence9

I’m using 7.2.7.0 version. I don’t find the way to sort them before import the sequence with promotion.

You may want to try this
01Image sequence
02Image sequence…and up to 10 then do
10Image sequence
11Image sequence…and so on

thanks for reply. Yes it will be a solution, but when you want to import 450 frames is a lot of job change all names files, but yes, is a solution,

Unless I am mistaken you only need to change the first 9 frames then it should import correctly

hello, I have checked, same problem, I would need to put a “0” before the first 99 frames

This is because they are imported in the same order as they would be displayed in the file explorer or any other file handling tool. Ordering is done by just comparing character by character of two file names. I could add more logic to detect numbers and make them use a number sorting when there are trailing numbers in the file names.

thanks Jan for the reply. It will be great
