Onionskins function like tracing paper that you can place over an underlay.
One or more onionskins can be inserted in a document. When you save a file, onionskins
are saved with the document.
Selecting an onionskin makes it active. You can change the size of an onionskin, and
you can move an onionskin to a new location in a document.
You can display or hide onionskins. For example, you can hide an onionskin to select an
ink stroke that lies under the onionskin.
Locking an onionskin prevents changes to its size and position. When you lock an
onionskin, you cannot delete it or edit its ink strokes, but you can hide it.
You can change the properties of an onionskin. For example, you can adjust the opacity
of an onionskin, change the size of its control bar, and choose a different color for its
surface. You can also dim inactive onionskins to distinguish them from active
onionskins.
You can save an onionskin for reuse later on. For example, you can insert an onionskin,
add text, lines, and shapes on it, and save it for use in other documents. For information
about creating reusable content, see “Reusing content” on page 63.
When you no longer need an onionskin, you can delete it.
To add an onionskin
1 In the toolbox, tap Onionskin .
2 Drag to define the size of the onionskin.
