Show Layer at Cue Point not not dimming base layer

Jul 06, 2020

Hi - I have 3 cue points and my layers are appearing at those cue points. However, when the layers play, the base layer won't dim, even though it is set for that.

Thank you,

Evelyn

Hi Evelyn,

Selecting the Dim checkbox in the bottom right corner of the screen is designed to dim layers during the editing process so that the layer you are actually working on stands out to make it easier to edit:

When running your course, if you want to dim the base layer when a layer above it is shown, the best way to implement that is to format the background of your additional layers with a solid white fill and set the transparency as required to achieve the level of dimming you are after (around 30% is a good starting point).
