I would like to import an image sequence of transparent .png images into powerdirector 16, and have them all treated as one file. From what I've been reading, and the videos I've been watching, it seems there's no way to do this. That is, you can import a sequence of images, but powerdirector treats them all as separate images not as one single clip.

It seems like I can overcome this obstacle by adding this image sequence to the pip objects room. I would like to know how to do this.

I already have the images ready to go, I guess I just need to know how to add them, what folder to put them in, and whatever the naming convention used is.

Please help me create my own custom pip object. Thanks.


EDIT:
I meant to add, my current workaround for this is to import all of my images on the timeline, add a colored background, exporting it as a video file, then importing that finished video back into PD and chroma keying out the background. I really wish I didnt have to do it this way. Some image sequences might contain a mulititude of colors that would be hard to erase using this method with the chroma key.

Does PD 16 have the aboility treat image sequences as one clip and I'm just not seeing it? Even if it does, I'd still like to know how to create my own pip objects.

Again thanks for your help.
Hi, I just bought powerdirctor 16. I've been editing videos for a while with other software and it's hard to get used to the timeline in this program. With video editors I've used before, track one was at the bottom of the timeline. They were arranged in ascending order. The timeline for powerdirector seems upsidedown to me. It's hard to wrap my head around, if you want a clip above another clip in your finished video, you have to place it below on the timeline. It's counterintuitive.

Is there a way to invert the tracks? That is, place track one at the bottom, track two above that one and so on. So when you put a clip above another clip, it actually shows that way in the finished video?
