To import an image sequence into Harmony, you can initiate the process through several methods available within the software interface. These methods open the Import Images dialog box, where you can then select your image files and configure import options.
Here are the exact ways to start the image sequence import process based on common methods:
Methods to Import Images into Harmony
Harmony offers convenient ways to bring external image files, including entire sequences, into your project. Once the import command is triggered, you will be presented with a dialog window to browse for your files and set parameters.
Here are the primary methods to import images, including sequences:
-
Using the Top Menu:
From the top menu, select File > Import > Images. This is a standard navigation method found in many software applications. -
Using the File Toolbar:
In the File toolbar, click the Import Images button. This icon-based method provides quick access directly from a commonly used toolbar. -
Using the Xsheet View Context Menu:
In the Xsheet view, right-click anywhere in the frame area and select Import > Images. This context-sensitive method is useful when working directly within your exposure sheet.
Each of these actions will open the Import Images dialog box, where you can navigate to the folder containing your image sequence, select the files, and specify how you want Harmony to handle them (e.g., create a new layer, add to an existing layer, set duration). Importing an image sequence is typically done by selecting the first image in the sequence; Harmony will often automatically detect the rest.
Understanding these different access points allows you to choose the method that best suits your workflow within Harmony.
