Displaying and layering multiple cels


3DO PostPro allows you to display multiple cels on top of an image on the Workbench and television monitor simultaneously and layer them. Each cel or image has a number. The topmost cel in the layering display shows its number in the lower-left corner. You can reorder the layering sequence interactively.

This section shows you how to display more than one cel at a time and reorder the layering sequence.

  1. Launch 3DO PostPro.

  2. Open the files you want to display. The Document windows appear.

  3. Drag the Document Proxy for the first cel onto the Workbench. Then drag the Document Proxy for another cel onto the Workbench.

  4. Figure 1 shows two cels displayed with the topmost cel showing its sequence number in the lower left corner of the cel.

    Note: The cels are numbered in the order you drag them onto the Workbench. The cel with the number shown is the cel on the top of the layering sequence.
