In the bottom-layer tract, there are only 2 filters:
Levels
Gain/Volume.
With the above settings, the 2 masked-areas are blurred. But the entire remainder image is Transparent" (Cannot be seen at all).
However, if in bottom-layer tract, I toggle the entire tract visibility “by clicking the eye icon”, this then hides the bottom-layer tract, & properly reveals the top-layer tract image together with the 2 blurred areas.
I have tried changing in top-layer tract, the ‘Operation’ settings (i.e. Overwrite, Max, Min, Add, Subtract) for the 2 'Mask: Simple Shape" filters. But nothing works as I had hoped.
Hoping someone with more Shotcut skills than myself, can advise of the best way to achieve the effect I want.
Also…
I can’t check right now on Shotcut, but if your Size, Position & Rotate filter is used to reduce the size (and/or position) of the clip on the top track AND the blurred areas, I think you should move it below all the other filters in the list.
To make a frame entirely opaque (before other filters that change the alpha) you need to use Mode = Reset in Alpha Channel: Adjust. This clears the alpha channel to make it uniformly 0s or transparent. Then, Invert to make it opaque:
J’ai initialement utilisé le preset Slide Deck (HEVC) car je craignais que le clip dépasse le quota de 8 megs du forum. Je viens de l’exporter à nouveau avec le preset par défaut, ce qui a produit un clip de tout juste en dessous de 8 meg finalement. Essayez à nouveau svp @Namna
I initially used the Slide Deck (HEVC) preset because I was worried that the clip would exceed the forum’s 8 meg quota.
I just exported again with the default preset, which produced a clip of just under 8 megs after all.
Please try again @Namna
Thanks. That is exactly what I need to do. Except, that in the bottom-tract, I do not what see see any image at all, because I am only using the bottom-tract for its voice-audio. So after using the “Size, Position, Rotate” filter in top-tract, I want the remainder screen to be shown as a one-color (e.g. gray color).
