VIDEO PAINT: CHAPTER TWO

8. Select the Show only paint layer option to have the onionskin applied

just to the paint layer. This speeds up processing time because only the

edited portions have a transparency applied. If left clear, the transpar-

ency is applied to the source video plus the paint layer. (Depending on

the type of video, this may produce no noticeable effect.)

9. Click OK. The dialog box closes and the settings take effect immedi-

ately.

Painting over frames in Onionskin mode

No Source Video mode

When working on an image, it can often get confusing trying to determine

where the image starts and the edits end. In such cases, you can remove the

image from view by selecting the No Source Video mode. No Source Video

mode removes the image from the edit window and replaces it with the

current background color. This allows you to easily see your edits in the

paint layer only. To view the frame’s image, change back to Normal mode.
