800 Corel Painter X3 Getting Started Guide
Adding, deleting, and erasing frames
You can add frames at the end or beginning of a movie, or in between any frames in the
stack. You can also delete frames from a movie and all subsequent frames are
renumbered as necessary. In addition, you can clear the frame contents, but retain the
paper color. You cannot undo the actions of deleting and erasing frames, so it’s best that
to create animations in small segments and then combine them when you are finished.
For more information, see “Inserting movies” on page 801.
To add frames
1 Choose Movie Add Frames.
2 In the Add Frames dialog box, type the number of frames in the Add box.
3 Enable an option for frame placement.
For example, to add six blank frames before frame 10, type 6 in the Add box,
enable the Before option, and type 10 in the Frame box.
To delete frames
1 Choose Movie Delete Frames.
2 In the Delete Frames dialog box, enter the range of frames to delete.
To erase frames
1 Choose Movie Erase Frames.
2 In the Erase Frames dialog box, enter the range of frames to erase.
Repeating frames
You can repeat actions to create an animated cycle. You can also repeat the last frame
at the end of the stack.
Take, for example, a blinking eye. For this type of action, draw the cycle once, and
repeat it as many times as needed.
