Somehow I lost you Droxon, I cannot locate "Layers Properties" , or "General Tab" either. I am using Debut 10.

Having a character moving across a background scene I want to apply shadows for the character. The "Paint Bucket Tool" has not been successful for me, any idea how I could accomplish this ?

Can predefined images be used for animation without going through "Image Tracing"?

Setting up the star as shown in the tutorial all is well including the links in Reparent bones, selecting Manipulate bones the shadows show on each star point but star point does not move only the bone. I repeated this several times with the same results.
