36 Chapter 3 Media
Image Specifications Double-click the name of an image in the Media window to change its specifi-
cations. Click the Browse button to link the media item to another file. This
updates all cues to show the newly selected image instead.
Transparency In most cases, WATCHOUT can determine the kind of alpha channel (trans-
parency) being used in the image, if any. If the automatic detection fails,
choose the correct type of alpha channel here.
Optimize For... WATCHOUT normally optimizes all images for best possible playback perfor-
mance. However, this may occasionally limit your options when attempting to
apply advanced features to an image, such as external control of its position
or size (see page 178). To allow the use of such advanced features, choose
“More Effects and Capabilities” instead.
▲ IMPORTANT: Do not choose “More Effects and Capabilities” unless you
need to, as doing so increases the load on your computer. This option is not
available for images larger than 2048 pixels in either direction.
