Creation
of a transparent zone

 

Popims Animator proposes two methods to create transparencies, the definition of a transparency colour, or the definition of a transparency zone.

To use a transparent color, choose the "Color Key " option, and simply define a transparency color by clicking in a zone to be made transparent, and adjust with the "tolerance" selector.

Otherwise, indicate if you wish to define as transparent the Inside selection or on the contrary the Outside selection , and create the transparency limit as indicated below.

First, you must first have created transition points all along the separation between the future transparent and non transparent zones.


 
Change to the transparent creation mode .
Connect the points by clicking on them with the mouse

Close the curb by clicking again on the first point.

 

Choose if you want to have the inside or the outside of your sélection becoming transparent.
 

When you have finished,
go to the next step .
