-==== Complex Masks ==== +    * A Video could also be added as either the Mask Stencil or Mask Content

-Masks in Version 9 also have another property which enables complex masks to be generated from a mixture of black and white objects: the ability to switch the "Alpha Channel" on and off.  Here is an example using two black rectangles with a white centre rectangle. Remember "white reveals" and "black conceals".. +

-These two rectangles can be used to generate a composite mask. The two rectangles are now used as mask stencils in a user-defined mask.  Rectangle 2 is above Rectangle 1.  For Rectangle 2, if "Convert to Alpha Image" is ON, then the black area where Rectangle 2 overlaps Rectangle 1 becomes transparent. +
