IndirectionControl Layer

The indirection control module allows indirections to be sequenced on the timeline. One Indirection control module controls one indirection.

The indirection control module is implemented with two new classes:

  • SequencedIndirectionController: The controller added to control the indirection.

  • IndirectionControl module: The module used for sequencing the indirection on the timeline.

The indirection control module updates the selected SequencedIndirectionController when it hits a new keyframe.
