Animation- Image Options

Image Options

The Options Inspector lets you change settings of selected images in the Storyboard/Timeline. You can make changes to multiple images at once by selecting several images in the Storyboard/Timeline before adjusting settings in the Image Options Inspector.

The Image Options Inspector opens automatically when you double-click an image in the
Storyboard/Timeline.

File

When a single image is selected, the filename of the image will be displayed here. If you want to
replace the image, while keeping all other parameters (animation, color, etc.), select the Replace File...
command from the popup menu next to the filename. You can also select to Reveal the image in the
Finder, or Get Info on the image.

When you replace an image in a slide, you will probably have to adjust the position and zoom factors for the new image.

Border

Use this feature to add a border to the selected images. Use the slider or enter a point size to set the
width of the border. Click on the color swatch to choose the border color.

Color

Use this feature to apply non-destructive color correction to the selected images. Color correction can
be used to modify the color tint, saturation, and gamma (lightness) of an image.
Click the Custom color button to open a popover. In the Color palette wheel, click and drag the black
circle to the preferred color, and use the saturation and lightness (gamma) sliders to adjust these
parameters. The image in the Stage adjusts automatically as you make changes.

In the popup menu you can select to copy and paste the selected color correction from one slide to
another, or reset to go back to the original color in the image.

The effects of the color correction are visible live in the Stage and Storyboard/Timeline. If you have multiple slides selected, the Stage is empty and you can see only see teh effects in the Storyboard/Timeline.

If you have several images of matching color tint, but a few stick out with a different tint, you
can select these images and adjust their tint to match the other images.

To create a black & white version of an image simply reduce the saturation to 0%.

Visibility

Use the Visibility controls if you don’t want an image layer to be visible during the whole duration of a slide. Drag in the darker triangles (located on the outside) to restrict visibility to a certain range. Drag the lighter triangles (located on the inside) (creating a ramp in the curve) to fade-in and fade-out the image layer. The yellow sections in the bar represent the incoming and outgoing transition intervals.

The popup menu to the right contains several useful presets: Reset, Fade In, Fade Out, Fade
In/Out.

Animation

When animation is enabled in the Slide Options Inspector, you can use the Animation controls to fine
tune animation timing. The darker triangles (located on the outside) determine when an animations
begins and ends. The lighter triangles (located on the inside) adjust the fade-in and fade-out of the
animation. Refer to Fine tuning Animation for more details.
