Exporting with Alpha Channels

To export your project with an alpha channel, use a preset that supports alpha
channels, such as Lossless+Alpha Movie. The default QuickTime Movie preset—”Movie-
current project and Canvas setting”—uses the Animation codec, which supports alpha
channels. Also, to export your project with a transparent background, make sure that
Background is set to Transparent in the Project Properties dialog (press Command-J).

You can view extended descriptions of the export presets in Motion Preferences.

To view export preset settings in Motion Preferences:

1

Choose Motion > Preferences, then click Presets.

2

In the Presets pane, choose Export Presets from the Show pop-up menu.
