video texture

Post by tiannaidan »

I don't see this one on here anywhere. Is it possible to add a video as a texture to a object? For example a tv screen with a video added as a texture so it looks like it is on. Toonboom has this feature but I don't see any way to do it in AM.

You can add a video like an image layer and treat it with masks opacity etc like any single image, even warp it with bones.

Yes you can in AS. In the style palette, choose fill effect 1 or 2 and choose image texture. You can use an image or a video as long as its a format AS can use. Use the select shape tool and move the handle to scale or move the image or video in the shape.

I got it to work thanks, I forgot about trying to import a video. I was looking in the swash and texture area for an option.
