  • CC Page Turn – Backside texture wont behave!

    Posted by Toddy The aussie on March 7, 2007 at 12:42 am

    G’day all

    I’m doing a slideshow using page turn – which allows user to select a texture to be mapped onto the ‘backside’ of the slide as it fold over.

    Problem is – the texture is not constrained to the size of the slide, and just goes nuts on a scale totally of it’s own, uncropped by the original slide?!!

    Worth noting; I’m applying the ‘Page Turn’ effect to an image that is pre-comped which seems to be required in order to allow the slide to ‘blow’ across the entire composition window – edge-to-edge uncropped?

    Looking forward to a wealth of wisdom and insight from all you gurus!

    Yes, ideally all images should have the same size. CC Pageturn does not expand the buffers by itself, resulting in incorrect position calculations. To avoid some of your troubles, you can use the Grow Bounds effecxt, Minimax and a few other channel tools to manipulate the Alpha channel/ image buffer bounds. This will help in particular with images that are smaller than the front face. Also consider the Transform effect to resize your image or similar third-party tools.
