Using Auto Distort

Use Auto Distort to create animations that show bitmap cast members gradually changing from frame to frame. Auto Distort generates intermediate cast members for any cast member that is free rotated, made into a perspective, slanted, distorted, or skewed.

Cast members created with Auto Distort after the perspective effect was used.

To use Auto Distort:

1 | Select the portion of a bitmap cast member you want to change.
2 | Use the Free Rotate, Perspective, Skew, Distort, or Stretch button to change the image.
3 | Without deselecting the changed image, choose Xtras > Auto Distort.
4 | Enter the number of cast members to create.
| Director generates new cast members with an intermediate amount of change applied to each one. The new cast members appear in the first available cast positions.
