-FRAME+====== Add a Frame Object ====== 
 + 
 +A Frame is a transparent object which can be used as a "Parent" object in Objects and Animation. 
 + 
 +It can also be thought of as a Rectangle Object with Zero Opacity. 
 + 
 +==== Add the Frame ==== 
 + 
 +Click on the Frame Icon to add a Frame. 
 + 
 +{{en-us:10.0:techniques:frame-01.jpg}} 
 + 
 +    * The Frame is added to the Objects and Animation Screen 
 +    * The Size of the Frame is the Project Size and it "Fits" the Screen 
 +    * The Zoom for the Frame is 100% when it Fits the Screen 
 +    * The Opacity of the Frame is Zero 
 + 
 +==== Multiple Frames ==== 
 + 
 +    * Frames can be added to other frames (Parent / Child) and can be renamed in the Common Tab 
 + 
 +{{en-us:10.0:techniques:frame-02.jpg}} 
 + 
 +    * Using the Multiple Frames approach animation can applied to each frame independently 
 +    * Pan motion is applied to the Pan Frame 
 +    * Zoom motion is applied to the Zoom Frame 
 +    * Rotation is applied to the Rotate Frame 
 +    * The Object can also be animated independently of the three frames 
 + 
 +{{en-us:10.0:techniques:frame-03.jpg}} 
 + 
 +    * Frames can be made "Transparent to Selection" 
 + 
 +{{en-us:10.0:techniques:frame-04.jpg}} 
 + 
 +==== Hierarchy in Parent / Child Relationships ==== 
 + 
 +    * Note that in the above example: 
 +      * The Object is at the "Front" 
 +      * The Pan Frame is at the "Rear" 
 + 
 +==== Hierarchy in Independent Frames / Objects ==== 
 + 
 +    * An Independent Frame or Object which is placed "above" another Independent Frame or Object in the Objects List is also "above" in terms of Selection 
 +    * "Higher" Independent Frames or Objects in the Objects List need to be made "Transparent to Selection" to be able to Click on and Select "Lower" Independent Frames or Objects 
 +    * This also applies to Published Exe Files which have HyperLinks on Objects 
 + 
 +==== A frame whose dimensions are different to the project size ==== 
 + 
 +When working in the Objects and Animations window it is sometimes advantageous to add a frame, the dimensions of which differ from the project size. An example would be to create a square frame in a 3:2 Project. 
 + 
 +    * Change the Native Size to the desired dimensions
