Layer Editor in Flipbook

Starting with Sketchbook Pro 9.3, Flipbook uses the same Layer Editor as the standard canvas, with all Layer Editor features including blend modes, clipping masks, text layers and layer management tools.

When working on a Flipbook, the Layer Editor has two modes. The title bar will indicate if you are editing the layers in a Foreground keyframe or if you are editing the Background.

Foreground

  1. Can have a maximum of 20 layers/groups per keyframe
  2. Does not have a background color

Background

  1. There is only one background that is used for every frame of the scene
  2. You can have a maximum of 20 layers/groups in the background.
  3. The background color is also controlled here
  • To change the background color, tap the color swatch. This will allow you to set the color using the Color Editor, Color Puck or Custom Color window.
  • When you have set your color, tap on the swatch again to deactivate background color selection
