Command clips

 
 
 

Three kinds of command clips let you show and hide selected models, or launch an application at any time in your story. You drag these command clips from the Asset browser.

With three types of Command clips, you can make objects appear and disappear at specific points in time using command clips. You can also use command clips to launch external applications.
