A Composition allows multiple sources to be grouped together to form a single Layer.

Setup

The resolution of a new composition will match the Workspace canvas by default; however, the resolution can be adjusted as required.

Sources can be added, arranged and removed within from source list view.

Add Source

Use the + button to add a source to the composition.

A new source can be created, or an existing source can be added from the load menu.

Remove Source

Edit Source

Igloo Core Engine uses a breadcrumb trail system, shown in green below, to identify which Source within the Composition is currently selected for editing. The Layer settings panel, shown in red can then modify the settings for the currently selected Source

The view tabs can be used to select between the available previews.
