    Question Order of inserted objects in frame

    I've found strange behavior. Two different active object are belong to same groups.
    Set the spread value into this group and display it to the counter.
    However, result was different between frame 1 and frame 2.

    Look at the following images.
    In the first image "Active" has inserted at first.
    Other hand, in the second image "Active" has inserted at second.

    These differences will affect to event order?

    I have not looked at your mfa, but yes, the spread value explores the object in the order of creation : the value will not be the same if the object are dropped at different moments.

    "Active" has existed since frame started.
    "Active 2" was created every 1 seconds.
    Always set spread values into "Good" group ("Active" and "Active 2" are belonged.).
    However, the first image as frame 1, does not change spread value of oldest object "Active".

    @ASD: the two objects are different types, not instances of the same type. The qualifier first spreads by the order the types were created, not by the order the instances were created.
    Working as fast as I can on Fusion 3

    Yeah, the ordering system is a little complicated:
    1.) MMF2 will spread values in all instances of one object type before moving onto instances of the next object type, starting with the first object type created.
    2.) It will start with instances created at runtime, and will spread values according to the order in which the instances were created (not display order), starting with the last instance created.
    3.) It will then move onto instances created in the frame editor, and will spread values in those according to their display order, starting with the front-most instance. That makes it possible to change the order in which values are spread by using "bring to front", "send to back", etc.

    Incidentally, is that a Developer-only feature, because I can't even find a window that looks like those screenshots?

    Have you not used the Create New Object dialog?

    Lol, I'm being retarded. I hadn't realized he was creating the objects at runtime. Really need to stop posting after 4am...
