Registering Your Own Original Frames

You can use a commercial paint-type program to create a shape yourself, then register it with Dr. METAZA. Vector data cannot be registered. Prepare bitmap data in BMP or JPEG format.

Tip

For frames, we recommend using images that meet the following conditions.

Use images that do not contain continuous gradations or a large number of colors. (We recommend using only about 16 colors.) Use clearly defined borders between transparent colors and other colors.

Click [Transparent Color], then click the color you want to make transparent. When the button is selected, you can specify more than one color.

To cancel the transparent-color setting, click [Trans- parent Color] to clear the selection.
