Stagger

Align and shift layers and keyframes

Description

Stagger is a full-page workflow designed to help you stagger both layers and keyframes. It offers tons of customizable parameters and modes for every scenario

Interval Page

Options

Type - Layer: Stagger individual layers - Keyframe: Stagger keyframes across or within layers

Mode - In-point: The stagger interval will be calculated based on the in-point of the layers. - Out-point: The interval becomes overlap, and the stagger is calculated based on the out-point of the layers, and how much they overlap.

Direction - Ascending: Stagger will apply in ascending order - Descending: Stagger will apply in descending order

Alignment - CTI: Stagger will start aligning layers at the CTI - Layer: Stagger will start aligning layers at the in-point of the first layer in the sequence

Start Index - Top: This specifies that the alignment of the layers will start with the topmost layer - Bottom: The alignment of the layers will start with the bottom layer

Interval/Overlap - Interval: Specifies the frames or seconds that the layers or keyframes will be staggered - Overlap: Specifies the amount of overlap that the layers will have when staggered

Grouping - Staggers layers in groups

Randomize - Randomly stagger the selected layers

Graph Page

Options

Type - Layer: Stagger individual layers - Keyframe: Stagger keyframes across or within layers

Alignment - CTI: Stagger will start aligning layers at the CTI - Layer: Stagger will start aligning layers at the in-point of the first layer in the sequence

Grouping - Staggers layers in groups

Duration Type - Custom: Enables the Duration option, with which you can specify the duration of time over which the graph will stagger your layers or keyframes - Work Area: Sets the duration of the stagger to span your current work area. Will disable the Duration and Alignment options, since the stagger will be aligned with the work area.
