  Display current time instead of frames

  Posted by Shawn Miller on November 11, 2005 at 12:31 am

  Does anyone know how to display current time instead of frames in an image sequence (file name)?

  Thanks,

  Shawn

  ctrl(cmd)-click on the time display button at the bottom of the comp window.

  Ah, I’m sorry – I should have been more clear. I mean when rendering out image sequences. I want each file to display the current time instead of current frame. So one frame in the sequence would read movie_name_00;00;37;12.tga instead of movie_name_03559.tga.

  Thanks,

  Sorry, but I don’t think it can be done. It would be a nice feature, though.

  Yeah, I thought as much. 🙂

  Thanks,
