Conditions

A condition tag is a way to mark movies, frames, or objects that you want to include in some outputs, but exclude from other outputs. They work in conjunction with targets, which are separate instances of an output type.See Targets.

Example  

You are creating a movie that will be shown to two different audiences. Perhaps all of the frames in the movie are appropriate for each audience, except for the final five frames, which should be shown only to Audience A. In that case, you might create two condition tags—one called "AudienceA" and the other "AudienceB."

Then you can mark each of the final five frames so that they are associated with the AudienceA marker.

In addition, you can create two targets—perhaps one is called "OutputA" and the other "OutputB."

In the OutputA target, you tell Mimic to include the AudienceA condition tag and exclude the AudienceB condition tag. In the OutputB target, you do the opposite.

When you generate the movie outputs, the movie using OutputA will show the final five frames. The movie using OutputB will not show the final five frames.
