Layers

Inspector

The inspector is where you can find all properties of the currently selected layer. Open it with the inspector button in the sidebar on the right.

Layer Type Selection#

Select the tab based on whether you want to edit the properties of the selected animation layer or the selected drawing layer.

Common Layer Properties#

The following properties are available on most layers. Layer properties that are specific to a certain layer type are covered on the handbook page of that respective layer type.

Blending#

Options for how the layer contents should be combined with the contents of the layers below it when the animation is rendered.

Opacity#

Controls the opacity with which the layer is blended onto the layers below. Lower the opacity value to make the layer more transparent.

Tip#

Tap the number value of a slider to input a new value with your keyboard instead of having to drag the slider to the correct position.

Blend Mode#

The blend mode using which this layer should be combined with the layers below.

Transform#

All visual layers have transform properties, which can be used to change the position, rotation and scale of that layer. These properties can also be animated over time using keyframes.

Keyframing#

The inspector shows property values at the most recent keyframe.

Changing values in the inspector when a property has more than one keyframe will automatically insert more keyframes if necessary. You can find more info on keyframes in the keyframes chapter.
