Most of the show programming in LightAct happens in Timelines and Timeline Editor windows. The Timelines window consists of separate Timelines in which all the Sections, Layers, and Markers live. In the Timeline Editor window, you can manage Sections, Layers, and Markers of a given Timeline. Within the Layers, you can use different Layer Nodes to design your show.
You can find the Timelines window by going to Window -> Timelines.
Good to know: You can have several independent Timelines. In each of those Timelines, you can have several independent Sections, Layers, and Markers.
The Timeline Editor window can be found under Window -> Timeline Editor.
Sections are part of Timeline that can be edited inside of the Timeline Editor window.
Good to know: Each new Timeline created comes with one Section to start with.
A Layer is a very flexible concept added on a Timeline inside the Timeline Editor window.
Good to know: In LightAct Layers are completely customizable.
Markers are selected locations that help us organize the Timeline and set actions to them.
