Creation

 Declared in a creation group, a creation is a reference to a single file or a files set. See details "Creation Group"
These files are stored in the workspace folders (see details "Workspace"). They can be image files, video files, sound files, software files, data files, etc.
 A creation contains informations about these files: height, width, frame rate, etc. These informations can be set manually or automatically.
Creations are read and written by process. See details "Process Use"
example I: a max scene creation
<Creation id="scene" filename="scene.max" />
example II: a single image creation
<Creation id="picture" filename="picture.jpg">
     <Info name="height">1080</Info>
     <Info name="width">1920</Info>
</Creation>
example III: a video image creation
<Creation id="flower3" filename="flower3.mov">
     <Info name="height">1080</Info>
     <Info name="width">1920</Info>
     <Info name="video.nb_frames">1085</Info>
     <Info name="video.size">253474000</Info>
     <Info name="video.time_base">1/25000</Info>
</Creation>
example IV: a frameset creation
<Creation id="motionMaroc1" filename="maroc/maroc1/motionMaroc1.jpg">
     <Info name="width">1920</Info>
     <Info name="height">1080</Info>
     <Info name="index.list">true</Info>
     <Info name="begin">1</Info>
     <Info name="end">50</Info>
     <Info name="frame">1-50</Info>
     <Info name="update">1501612652247;01/08/2017 08:37:32</Info>

In frameset case, this is the first frame value

 Info end  | Integer  |  frameset, other

  The list index end value. Only used if index.list info is true. See "Indexed Creation"
