Your post is very helpful.
I'll also check out the link for the manual.

I get the reason for styles and that's great and useful. But there was just a bit of missing data that made it a real brain twister.

Thanks. This was missing data that was driving me nuts.

Thanks, Daxel. I'll get into your answer later today. For now I want to state this confusion before I forget what I did: 1. I selected a style from the bottom of the style panel (One problem is I don't know what the difference is between picking a style from the top or the bottom. Maybe Daxel's post...

Thanks, guys.

I'll check it out.

Thanks. Actually, I deleted the layer and started over. So I can't show what I did. I got it to work but don't know exactly how or why. I think the basic problem I'm having comes from some missing piece of information concerning Styles. I've watched many tutorials over and over and there's still som...

Help! I've created a new style for a pencil type line. I drew a good outline for the character. I added a vector layer underneath for some color. (That's confusing, too, but for another post.) Then I created another vector layer above and wanted to draw some cross hatching in a different pen style. ...

I'll look around for that.

My older Moho Pro 12 had perfect settings for ProRes 422 and 444. It was so simple and the 444 gave perfect alpha.
This new version is obscure. Even looks like the ProRes is ONLY alpha. But it's not.

That's really not good. As I mentioned, I'm on the new Mac Mini with all the latest Moho, FCP and OS. I only got it to work if I exported image seq with png from Moho, imported to Motion, then saved as a ProRes 422 for importing into FCP. So I was able to get the transparent background in Motion - w...

SlowTiger, I'm currently on a new Mac Mini M2 and having this problem. I've got the latest FCP and OS. But when Moho (12.5 was my previous version) renders, I can see as it's rendering if it's got a transparent background. In 14, as it's rendering it looks like it's got a solid background. That's wh...

I got a workaround. I did what some of you suggested. Exported as image seq with png. As I mentioned above, FCP screwed up the order for some reason. I then imported into Motion instead and it worked find. Exported as a mov with alpha. Tried importing the video into CSP but it didn't recognise the a...

I just exported 3 versions: 1. MOV ProRes alpha 2. MOV Png alpha 3. Image Seq Png It's clear Moho isn't exporting it with a transparent background. You can see that as it's rendering. The Image Sequence did have the alpha, but when I imported it into FCP all the numbers were out of order. Don't know...

Thanks for all the testing, D.R.

This is unfortunate.

I'm going to do some checking with FCP and Clip Studio.
I'll post the results later today.

https://i.ibb.co/qJYMqGD/QQ-20240214071711.jpg :shock: I usually use this option to output mov files with transparent backgrounds, which are very clear. There may not be as much detail and color space as 4444, but it is sufficient for animation. I hope it will be helpful to you. Wishing you all the...

I've been using Moho Pro 12.5 for years and exporting as ProRes 422 and 4444 when I need alpha. Always worked fine. Now I've upgraded to the latest Mac OS, FCP and Moho Pro and the 4444 is not exporting alpha. So the problem appears to not have been fixed yet. Hope they get it solved soon. Looks lik...

That's something I hadn't thought of.
I'm currently working on a full-length animated musical.

Being primarily a songwriter/producer, I'm learning animation as fast as I can. There are still many challenges working in Moho, but this forum is a huge help.

Image files would probably work. I'll be going to Apple Motion and FCP anyway. But I sure would like the original 2 options I've always used. Keeps the file size down when I don't need transparency. I bet there's a button hidden somewhere. There usually is. Just need to keep looking. Thanks for your...
