Hi, I’m using XSI 6.5. I rendered a Depth Channel into a Zpic sequence. But in the FXTree the sequence cannot be loaded properly until I create a pic file (even a fake one), whose file name (not counting the file extension) and the digital count are exactly the same as those of the Zpic sequence.
Given the sequence named “balloons_depth.###.Zpic”, if there is no “balloons_depth.001.pic” or there is a pic file named “balloons_depth.1.pic”, the Zpic sequence won’t be loaded.
My system is MS Windows XP x64 Corporation English with Chinese Language Pack. But in my opinion there is nothing to do with the system.
Just wanna know whether this is a bug of FXTree or not. Thanks!

best regards,
lechuan
