trailertrash Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 In O & A when using slide 2 below slide 1 how do I set the programme to only show me the slide I'm working with. I cant for the life of me figure it out and cant work properly with the bottom slide, cause the top slide is always in the way.Have I explained that correctly? Any help would be appreciated, cause its doing my head in. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xahu34 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Andrew,Maybe it will be helpful to choose the option "Ignore Objects Not Selected" in the Tools menu (Alt+i). Regards,Xaver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trailertrash Posted June 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hope I'm explaining this right. There are 3 images, one behind the other. When I try to work on the middle one, the top one is always in the way, so I cant really see whats heppening to the middle one. [see screen shot] I checked the box ignore not selected, but the top image stays put. Is there any way to make it get out of the way so I can see the middle and bottom slide?Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fh1805 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Andrew,In the O&A window, Common tab... try ticking the "Transparent to Selection" box for those upper images. This should allow you to select the lower image and drag it to where you want or to re-size it, etc. When you've got the bottom one in place, untick "Transparent to Selection" for the next one up the stack and off you go again!regards,Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susiesdad Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Hi AndrewI've been away. Only just catching up on forum.Why not select the image in the objects window, right click and use order to bring image to the front . Work on it and then use order to put it back where it belongs in the levels.Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
