Just playing around with sequencer trying to learn to use it, and it seems some tracks don’t play well together
If I have an empty shots track and a camera cuts track, the camera cuts are broken
Steps to reproduce:
- Add a shots and a camera cuts track to a sequence (the shots track was left over from prior tests in my case)
- Create a camera and camera cuts track via the camera toolbar button in Sequencer (notice the camera cuts preview bar is corrupt).
- Add keyframes to focus changes (focal length or manual focus distance) and transforms
- Lock the viewport to this camera and play - the focus changes are animated as expected
- Lock the viewport to the camera cuts track and play - only the camera transformation is visible in the viewport, not the actual view through the camera (i.e. lens settings, focus, etc. is not applied)
- Delete the empty shots track and lock to the camera cuts again. This time it works as expected and the preview bar shows proper thumbnails.
