                         USING MASKING


                  Masking in Animate is used to hide a selected part and display
                  content of a specific layer. Masking enables us to control the
                  content that is visible to the audience. In order to create a

                  Spotlight effect, we can create a circular mask and have the
                  audience  view  only  the  content within  the  circular  area.  This
                  enables the audience to focus on the important content in
                  the project/graphics.  Perform the following steps to create a
                  masking effect:
                  Step 1:   Create a new document in Animate 2024.

                  Step 2:   Click on the Selection Tool from the Tools panel.
                  Step 3:   Right-click on the Frame 100 in the Timeline panel and

                          select the Insert Frame option.
                  Step 4:  Click on the Frame 1 from the Timeline panel.
                  Step 5:   Select the File → Import → Import to Stage option from

                          the Menu bar to import pictures to the background.
                          The Import dialog box opens.
                                                                                              Inserting frame
