    I want to stack some clips to create a montage of overlapping images. Some I want to be 50% opacity/transparency. I cannot find a way to achieve this in the inspector. Where do I look?
    How do change that setting?
    Thanks

    At the very bottom of the video tab in the inspector, you should see an opacity slider. That is how you adjust it in the inspector. Note, this is only visible when viewing in a project or when viewing the clip in timeline mode. Opacity is not adjustable in the inspector if you’re just viewing the clip in the event browser.

    Also, you can adjust the opacity of a clip in the project itself by selecting the clip, and hitting CTRL+V. This will open the video animation layers. Click the little icon on the right side of the opacity layer to open it up and from there you can lower opacity for the entire clip or fade the clip in and out with the fade handles, or even keyframe the opacity.

    Yup, sure enough it was there! I don’t know how I missed that!

    Thanks
