                 Masking in Animate is used to hide a selected part and display selected content on a 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 only view 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:                                                                        37
