10.5: How to create mask files?
Authored by: thorsten.b on Aug 26, '08 11:11:34PM

Thanks for this hint.

Could you give me some help on creating the mask files? What is a alpha channel, and how do I create tha mask.png in GraphicConverter or Preview?

I think, I did it right, but the drop zone of the stationery I created is somehow too small. I can change that size and position playing with the mask file (using mask files of other stationeries). How could I make one with the correct size and position?
(The background image is 644x272, the placeholder 522x272, thus the mask should be a black square of 522x272 centered on a 644x272 alpha.png).


thanks for any help,
t.
