Working over multiple frames
One of Video Paint's strengths is its ability to allow you to copy edits over
multiple frames. For example, you can paint a line and then have that line
appear in the same position and at the same size over all frames in the
project, or have it progressively appear over each successive frame. The
two operations you will use most often to perform these tasks are power
duplication and macro recording.
To perform a power duplication:
Paint over an image in an edit window.
1.
Click Edit: Power Duplicate to open the Power Duplicate dialog box.
2.
Select the Paint Layer option in the Source group box and the Apply
3.
after current frame option in the Apply group box. In the same group
box, set the duration to cover the number of frames you want your
edits to appear over. (The default is the maximum number of frames in
your project.)
Click OK to apply your edits over the specified number of frames. (If
4.
the number of frames exceeds the value specified in the Clear undo
history for multiple frame actions option in the Preferences dialog
box, a message box appears indicating that if you continue all undo
history will be discarded to help improve performance.)
