Getting started

Starting a project in COOL 3D is simple. The following section takes you through the steps of
beginning a first project.

Using the EasyPalette

The EasyPalette provides you with the fastest way to create astounding titles and graphics.
With its vast number of presets, this is where you can add color and life to your project with
just a few clicks.
EasyPalette
file directory
The EasyPalette file directory lists all of the objects and effects that you can apply to your
project. When you click on a category or a specific plug-in name, the thumbnail presets for that
particular item appear in the thumbnail pane. To apply a preset, use one of these methods:
• Drag and drop the preset into the Edit Window.
• Double-click the preset.
• Click Apply on the EasyPalette Toolbar.

Using Composition presets

Composition is the first category of presets in the EasyPalette file directory. It offers a
collection of ready-to-use Movies, 3D Models, and Video Frames that you can custom edit to
fit your project.
To create animation using Composition
presets:
1 Select Movie under Composition in the
EasyPalette file directory, then drag a
thumbnail containing a text object to your
current Edit Window (or double-click it to
open in a new Edit Window.)
