There are two ways to create Sequences and Evaluations from files: starting with a file or starting with a template.
Both these processes create new Actions that are then added to the Action Queue to create your new Sequence or Evaluation.
The Action Queue allows you to select a group of content from the library and then work with them to build Sequences, Evaluations, or just run the group immediately without saving it. The Action Queue is also used when you create a copy of an existing Sequence or Evaluation.
