Placing image files

The Place command places files created with other applications as new image objects in a composition. You can also use it to place other LiveMotion compositions.

You can place both vector and bitmap graphics files in an Adobe LiveMotion composition, including EPS, GIF, JPEG, PNG, BMP (Windows), PICT (Mac OS) files, PDF, and Photoshop 2.5 or later (RGB, grayscale, and CMYK). Third-party plug-ins might support other formats as well.

Note: To place an image as a texture, see Applying textures to layers.

To place files created in other applications:

1. Choose File > Place.
2. Select the file you want to place.

Note: Only files saved in file formats supported by Adobe LiveMotion are displayed.

3. Click Open to add the file to the active LiveMotion window as a new image object.
