That's what I am referring to. It doesn't appear to allow you to select subsets of still images from a folder when you choose force alphabetical -- It imports the whole folder as an image sequence. At least that is what it is doing here. (But there may be some kind of bug as it is providing as many as 14 duplicates of that same exact import of the whole folder; not sure what that is about.)
I wasn't sure if there was some other way I was missing to force alphabetical upon a subset of images in a folder.
Thanks, James

I've never really needed to import sequences before, and I'm a bit confused on how to handle importing a sequence of stills that are in order numerically but the numbering itself is not contiguous (i.e., we had to delete some of the in-between frames).
These are a series of animation shots -- in one example, 360 frames total in a folder and I need to import 14 of them as one particular scene and shot.
It appears I cannot select a sub-set of the files in a folder for import as a sequence and force alphabetical order. It always wants to import the whole folder of files as the sequence in spite of my selection. Do I have to place each specific scene and shot in its own folder to be able to force alphabetical order? Or what am I missing here?
If the online help talks specifically about this I've missed it.
Thanks much,
James
