The "licensing issue" isn't about content or copyright, but being limited in the installations of the prduct.  CTA was limited to a single computer, although I believe it's been changed since to two (a desktop and laptop)... Are these same restrictions in place for DrawPlus?

Actually, Serif offered a package deal with X3 which included a pressure-sensitive pad with purchase of Drawplus X3 some time ago. I know because I bought it. They constantly offer deals to existing customers as incentive to upgrade, and this happened to be one of them.

If CTA actually accepts the use of external SWF, then the answer is yes.

I mean the roll-able eyeballs function

Hi Vidi

from what i make from the tutorial link you posted DrawPlus should have no problem creating this kind of file but to be on the safe side it be nice for RL to confirm this.

OK I give up. I saw the offer for the draw program but cannot find the link to purchase it.

I'd like to buy just the draw program and not a bundle as I already have the other programs.

Whenever I click on the logon to purchase, I can't find where to purchase.

Thanks for any help.

Bill

Hi Bill

If you login to your account and click Bonus & Upgrade for your version of CTA you should see the DrawPlus offer listed there. Please let us know if you can't see the offer once you click Bonus & Upgrade.

Thanks Peter.

Worked like a charm

Hi, DrawPlus seems a wonderful product; however, after playing around with it for some time, I come to realize that the easiest file type for exporting a Stopframe animation WITH A TRANSPARENT BACKGROUND into CTA--an "stv", Serif Transparent Video--is apparently incompatible with CTA?  Exporting as "gif animated" also does not work as these files are not played by CTA as animations.   Any help???  I have the same question in with the DrawPlus forum; perhaps I can somehow mask the background, but not quite sure if/how this can be done.

Have you tried SWF ? scratch that .. after looking at DrawPlus I see your problem , only way around it by the looks of it would be to create your animation as a Keyframe animation .... or export them as a PNG image sequence and put them together in CTA sprite editor like you would a animated prop maybe ?
