Hi Sergio,
what you are seeing inside the little clip is rather a programming based on active values, than on a timeline. In fact, it is a mixture of it.
All clips and play commands in freerun for the content is part of the timeline.
In the background you just create a Widget Designer interface which is controlled by the AirScan using it as a mouse. All you need to do is to setup some buttons which are setting active values for position and scale of all layers based around the centre. Once you click a button, all layers are reset and a specific one gets the centre values including a larger scale parameter.
Switch the WD to a new page using an X-Y-Panel for Scale and Rotation of the specific layer. If you "fix" the layer around the centre, you are always able to switch to each scene you like at any time.
That's it. Only use the timeline to control the content and maybe in and outfades into the scene, but the actual interactive stuff is done as an active value.
As I do not have a project available at the moment, I hope this explanation helps you to understand the basic steps to do this kind of programming.
