Here are some brainstorm thoughts about these two "strawman" goals..

What might specific examples be?

The scene(s) might even be hidden from the scene list unless the VSE user pushes the "edit" button to customize their internals. Any other community sharing ideas? Another one on my list is a bit simpler and related to asset sharing.. (c) create metadata to "link" the purpose of assets based on compatibility, and use that meta to make it easier to browse, pick, and load relevant pieces for a currently active object. For example, if I want to load alternate textures for a "wagon" model my local or a public asset library, it would be useful to see only textures which have been mapped to "fit" the wagon model. Likewise for shape keys, poses, etc.. _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
