The Sequence Animation App is located in the Content tab of the Fuzor App Menu. Sequence Animations can be used to make complex animations of any model that has been imported into Fuzor. They can also be bound to tasks to work as part of a Construction Simulation. For more information see Object Assignment.

You can select a sequence animation by clicking on it in the Sequence Animation List, when you do this the Key Frame editor is opened allowing you to edit frame by frame.

The Create button creates a new sequence animation of selected objects.

The Clone button duplicates the sequence animation.

The Import button opens a file browser for you to import a saved animation.

The Create Explosion Diagram button creates an explosion diagram with the selected object. The Explosion Diagram is added as a sequence animation.

The Add Object(s) button adds selected objects to the selected sequence animation.

The Remove Objects(s) button removes selected objects from the selected sequence animation.

The Grab Objects button prompts you to select objects to be temporarily added at the current keyframe

The Release Object button prompts you to select an object to be removed from the animation.

To improve workflow the Sequence Animations app, include two checkboxes that change the way box select works.

The Restrict Box Select to Animation checkbox ensures that objects selected with box select belong to the animation

The Restrict Box Selected to Nearest Layer toggles whether objects that are behind other objects are selected during box select. This allows you to select encapsulating objects like walls or curtain panels without selecting the contents of the building. The Tolerance determines how precise of a calculation is used to determine what is in the first layer of a selection. A lower tolerance will be more precise but will take longer to compute.
