4.Adjust Object Layer
Concept: The objects in PhotoBuilder have overlapping relationships in that an object can be totally or partly overlapped by an object above it and can also overlap an object below it. This spatial relationship of objects on different layers can be modified as described below.
Note: If you think of layers as being a pile of papers, "above" means towards the top of the pile while "below" means lower in the pile.
Operation: Click the Object icon to open the Object Window, then select the object with the mouse. Next, select the Layers button. When highlighted with the mouse this button will display "Move To Front" or "Move To Back" depending on the location of the object in the layers. When you click the button the object will move forward one layer or back one layer..
5.Adjust Transparency
Concept: Transparency refers to the visibility of an object. The degree of transparency can be adjusted from fully visible to invisible.
Operation: Click the Color icon to open the Object Window, then select the object with the mouse. You will see a Transparency scrollbar and three Color scrollbars. A small white dot on the scrollbar indicates the current position. To make the object less visible (i.e. more transparent) click on the scrollbar to the left of the white dot. The dot will move to the left and the selected object will be less visible. Conversely, clicking on the scrollbar to the right of the white dot will move the dot to the right and make the object more visible (i.e. less transparent). When the white dot is at the right end of the scrollbar the object is fully visible and when it's at the left end of the scrollbar it is invisible.
6.Adjust Color
Operation: Click the Color icon to open the Object Window, then select the object with the mouse. The Red, Green, and Blue components of the object's color can be adjusted by moving the white dot along the scrollbar as described above. CAUTION: Color adjustments cannot be reversed, so please exercise caution. You may wish to save your file before making color adjustments.
