Sequence Create From Items

Category: Pr Sequences

Creates a new sequence from one or more project items and returns its sequence reference through `storeResultIn` when that variable is set. The stored value is a sequence ref string ending in `::SEQ`, not a boolean success flag. The newly created sequence becomes the active sequence in Premiere, but later blocks should prefer the stored sequence ref for deterministic follow-up work. Use `targetBin` when the created sequence should be placed into a specific bin. All source items and the optional `targetBin` must belong to the same Premiere project. If `targetBin` points into another open project, the sequence is created there as long as all source items are from that same project.

Notes

• Creates a new sequence from one or more project items and makes it the active sequence in Premiere.
• items must resolve to clip-capable project items.
• storeResultIn stores the created sequence ref string (for example Project.prproj\New Sequence::SEQ), not a boolean success flag.
• Prefer using that stored sequence ref directly in later blocks instead of relying only on the active-sequence side effect.

Examples

Create Sequence From Selected Item And Place Into It

Creates a sequence from the first selected project item, then uses the stored sequence ref for a follow-up placement.
