![]() ![]() This saves you from drawing on the wrong layer every time and all you have to do is just click on that little light bulb, the auto light table. This way if I wanna work on the mother or the stroller and I click on that layer, I know I'm working on that layer 'cause everything else is grayed out. Everything else goes fifty percent transparency. So, whichever layer I have selected is the bold color. Notice we have the mother and the stroller on one layer and we have the boys on another. ![]() Oh, and look what happened in our drawing area. Now, if you look over on the bottom left of your icons, you'll see something that looks like a light bulb. Well, Storyboard Pro has a solution for you to keep this from happening and it's called the auto-light table. It's especially a problem if you need your layers separated so you can animate them later on. This causes a lot of problems and wasted time and people throwing paper across the room. Maybe you're spending ten minutes or so working on the layer and coloring things and then realize, Oh, I'm on the wrong layer. Now, if you've also ever drawn in Photoshop, I'm sure you've experienced accidentally drawing on the wrong layer. Seeing other drawings at the same time is called an onion skin and we'll get to that and what we do in Storyboard Pro in a minute. Now, one of the reasons is, maybe we sketched a rough of a drawing on one sheet and then we ink over it on another sheet and use the light table to see the sketch underneath, or if you're an animator and you need to see your keyframes both before and after your current drawing, then while you're animating you turn on the light table so you can see through to the earlier animation keys. 2D animators and many classic paper artists, and I say paper meaning artists who draw on paper, used to rely on light tables to see through their drawings onto lower sheets of paper.
