Avid|DS 4.02 Release Notes • June 2001 6
Must Click Layer Icon to Select Layer
To select a layer, you must click the layer icon in the 3D DVE Layers view. Clicking on the layer name will appear to
select the layer, but the previously selected layer will remain active. This may be confusing when working with layers.
Animation Editor Does Not Update
In the 3D DVE layout, the animation editor does not update when a parameter is changed in a property editor that is
focused on an object that is no longer selected. The Focus icon, in the title bar of property editors, connects a
property editor with a specific type of object.
Tessellation Change Does Not Update in Viewer
When adjusting the Tessellation parameter in the 3D DVE/Options property editor (Render property page), it may
not update immediately in the viewer. Click in the viewer to update.
Animation
Copy/Paste of Function Curves Fails
There are two scenarios in which copying and pasting function curves fails:
If you are using the Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V keyboard shortcuts while editing a 3D DVE or shape in the viewer, the
DVE and shape editors “grab all the keys.” To work around this, right-click on the animation graph and use the
Copy and Paste commands.
Unnoticed selection of a key when:
− A single key is selected during copy; the key, not the entire function curve, will be copied.
− A single key is selected during paste; the paste will fail.
If you want to copy/paste an entire function curve, make sure that no keys are selected in the source or
destination curves.
Audio
Audio Crossfade Activeness Breaks
Activeness is broken when you move multiple audio crossfades on the timeline that were multi-selected.
The activeness originally set will not be respected.
Tail of Reverb Cut after Clip
If a reverb effect is used as a clip effect, the tail of the reverb will be cut right after the clip. The audio cache file will
not be invalidated if you add an audio effect in an audio container clip.
Lost Caches in Audio Container Clips
If you change the mixer configuration in an audio container clip, you must reprocess the container clip the next time
you load the sequence.
