Navigating in the Timeline Hierarchy

When you access the Timeline, the layers and categories displayed depend on what is selected in the Workspace panel. For instance, if a composite is selected, then in the Timeline you see the layers in that composite. If a layer is selected, you see that layer's categories.

You can move up in the Timeline hierarchy to view different layers, composites, and branches as you would in the Workspace panel. This allows you to see more detail in the Timeline.

Navigating to a Specific Level

Most of the time, you navigate through the layers and operators in the workspace using the Workspace panel. However, you can also use the Timeline menu to navigate to any level in your workspace.

For instance, if you are working on a layer's categories, but want to work on another layer, click the Timeline menu and choose composite. All layers in the composite appear in the Timeline and you can adjust any categories as needed.

Navigating One Level at a Time

You can move up one level at a time in the Timeline hierarchy by clicking the Up Arrow above the Timeline menu.
