8321 Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Opacity change to a parent object does not change that of child, as it should. Blur change of parent changes blur of child the same amount and I don't see a way to un-blur a child that I want sharp with blurred background. Please help!

Make both objects to children of a common frame. Use the frame for programming animations, while blurring the background object. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegee Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 With regard to the BLUR question, if you make the two images Children of a Frame or other Object with zero opacity you can blur each one independently. With regard to the Opacity, it works the same in Version 9 as it did in Version 8. DG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8321 Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Thanks guys. Quite correct. It is not my day today ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Blur effect applies to a parent object and all its child objects. It allows optimize Blur for several objects at once together and optimize rendering of a Blur effect (more fast work). Opacity is traditionally in PicturesToExe applies only for necessary object. In future we plan to an option to apply a opacity to child objects (if necessary). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8321 Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Thank you, Igor. I miss the sliders for changing blur and opacity. Up- down- arrows are not as elegant. Maybe I am missing something. Regards, Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 If you want to change the opacity of a child with the parent, just put them in a mask and change the opacity of the mask container... Best regards, Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
