Adding Surfaces

To add a surface:

1. In the Media list, select the media containing the back or front/matte that you want to add to the scene.

2. Do one of the following:

   • Drag an image node from the node bin and place it in the schematic. An axis and an image are created and linked together.
   • Drag an image node from the node bin to the Result view, so you can see its effect on the scene before placing it exactly where you want.
   • Double-click an image node. The node appears next to the last added object. You do not need to be in Schematic view to add a node in this manner.

   The surface is added to the scene with its own axis. The selected media in the Media list is automatically applied to the surface.

   Notice that when front/matte media is applied to the image surface, the front and matte clip are combined. You can turn off the matte in the Matte Clip box in the Media menu to show the entire front clip.

3. If you later decide to change the media on the surface, select the surface in the schematic, then select the new media in the Media list and click Apply.
