Consecutive "view myname" commands only does first

[vadim.kotov@…]

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        Linux-4.15.0-72-generic-x86_64-with-debian-stretch-sid
ChimeraX Version: 0.92 (2020-02-17)
Description
I would like to make a transition between two views in a movie (please see attached script). In my case, however, the second view is activated in the first frame without any transition happening. This issue occurs on both daily build (used to make the bug report) and production release. I would be happy to provide additional input or do more testing.
Many thanks!

Short follow-up:

  I did some more research and it seems that this only happens when the 
second view contains clipping, and the first one doesn't. If I tick 
"clip" in the Side view panel and then save view 1, then the transition 
works.

Fixed.

The problem was not really related to clipping planes. It was that "view overview" followed by "view closeup frames 30" in a script only ran the second command. This was because the first command incorrectly did not act immediately instead waiting for the first drawn frame, and the second command also started at the first drawn frame. I made "view overview" act immediately.
