Converting scripts to movies

(Windows only)

You can convert a script into a Corel Painter movie, which you can save as a QuickTime or AVI file. Every action you perform in the script becomes a frame in the movie. For more information, see Exporting movies as AVI and Exporting movies as QuickTime.

If the script is resolution-independent, you can replay the session into a movie using different dimensions. For more information, see Creating resolution-independent scripts. However, if the script is resolution-dependent and the new image window is larger, the script plays back in the upper-left corner of the movie. If the new image is smaller than the script dimensions, only the upper-left portion of the scripted session appears in the movie.

You can also apply a script to a movie. For example, you can record a script that applies the Motion Blur effect to a single image. Then, with a single command, you can apply the script to each frame of a movie. You can also use a script to set grain position in a movie. For more information, see Applying scripts to movies.

Not all actions can be converted into a movie. For example, a script that contains a File New command will not be converted.
