I tested it and I can confirm it works.

Cool, thank you for the response. I just tested it, it works perfectly :)

One more question: When doing the timelapse it would be great to refocus before every stack. Ideally like setting a focus point for the "A" point, where before every stack it would autofocus on that point and then take X ...
