Rendering the Morph

Here we have added a total of 35 dots to the morph and are ready to render it to a file for use outside of Morpheus Photo Animation Suite. The layout in this final form is available to play around with since it is included as one of the sample layouts with Morpheus Photo Animation Suite.

In order to render your morph, simply press the Render Timeline button on the toolbar, as shown here. The button just to the left of the Render Timeline button is the Save Layout button. Keep in mind that rendering is not the same as saving your layout. Saving your layout saves your work (which pictures you are using and where you have placed dots) so that you can change your morph later on. Rendering creates a file which can be emailed or displayed in other programs, but which cannot be changed by Morpheus Photo Animation Suite in the future.

At the Save As window, you can select a location to render your morph to, enter a name for the file, and select a file type to render to. Enter any file name you wish, but make sure you remember which folder on your hard drive you saved your morph into.

Flash SWF and Animated GIF formats are the best for displaying on webpages. Here we will render to a Flash SWF movie by selecting Flash SWF from the "Save as type" dropdown.

After a brief rendering progress window, your morph file will be created and ready for viewing.
