Adding assets to the canvas

Xstudio’s Asset Browser and Gallery Browser (figure

5-2

) provide you with immediate

access to all of the assets (i.e. images, clips, cel animations...etc.) that are available on the
system for creating compelling graphics displays (see

page 3-27

for more information about

the Asset Browser and Gallery Browser). From these browsers, you can simply drag and
drop a copy of an asset onto the canvas.

Figure 5-2. Drag and drop assets from the Asset Browser/Gallery Browser onto the canvas

To add an asset to the canvas:
1.

Open either the Asset Browser or the Gallery Browser.

2.

Click, drag, and drop the desired asset object from the Asset Browser or Gallery
Browser onto the canvas.

OTE

If the asset is an Xmedia Object that has both control and scene side elements, the control
object will appear on the control side’s canvas, and/or the scene object will appear on the
scene side’s canvas.

You can now position the objects as desired by dragging the object around the canvas using
your mouse (see

“Moving and aligning objects on the canvas” on page 5-14

). If you are

working on an asset with both a control and scene side, changing object positioning on one
tab will not affect corresponding items on the other.
