File Versioning

The file versioning options are found on each resource in Compositing - Resource Browser

When you have your files set up with the correct file suffix. Included is a picture of two pieces of content in file explorer) you can use the drop down menu in the Inspector for each asset to change which version you are using.

As of right now the resource won't update automatically as we've opted for a "choose when the file version updates" so that someone that drops content in isn't auto updating a piece of content that happens to be playing out on the timeline.

Filename Matching Specification

The filename format follows the pattern:
myFilename<suffix_begin>something_in_between<suffix_end>

suffix_begin: A predefined string that marks the start of the variable section in the filename.

something_in_between: A variable substring that can contain any characters.

suffix_end: A predefined string that marks the end of the variable section in the filename.

Example:

suffix_begin: _v

suffix_end: _tour

Valid match:

myFilename_v001_tour — matches the pattern, since _v is followed by 001 and ends with _tour.

Invalid match:

myFilename_v001_studio — does not match, as the suffix end _tour is not present.

You can change what your suffix is either locally for each resource, or in the General Settings 

To deactivate this feature, you can empty the “Suffix Begin” string:

Image Sequences

To use this feature for image sequences, the file version is applied to the folder itself. 

The name of files inside the folder stay the same.
