Hi hi, I need a overlay of the table in the middle that is in this BG
pv1_back_INT__CLASSIC_DINER_BOOTH___DAY

INT. CLASSIC DINER BOOTH - DAY

Will credit you Xoxo :innocent:

The overlays for this background are already in the Art Catalog. Just click overlays and type ‘diner’ in the search box. :slight_smile:

For some reason the overlays aren’t working, could you maybe try out the background to see if it’s working?

What do you mean

Sorry, you said?

I meant that when i try to put the characters behind the table overlay that Episode put in the background, they dont go behind there, am not sure if they updated the background or not.

Did you layer the overlay and your character?

When i pressed on (Change Overlay) theres no white dot box shown, don’t the overlays in the background work?

You still have to add the overlay to your script

e.g INT. CLASSIC DINER BOOTH - DAY with INT. CLASSIC DINER BOOTH BACKGROUND BENCH - DAY with INT. CLASSIC DINER BOOTH FOREGROUND BENCH SITTING AREA - DAY with INT. CLASSIC DINER BOOTH TABLE - DAY with INT. CLASSIC DINER BOOTH FOREGROUND BENCH - DAY

Sorry it was really late where I am. I should have been more clear. The overlays are in the portal but you do have to add them in the Writer’s Portal (where you write your story).
You can do this by:

  • adding the create code:
    INT. BACKGROUND - DAY
    @ or &overlay NAME create and overlay NAME opacity 1
    ^^ Using and to join the two lines just saves space. If you are more comfortable with everything on your own line it would be:’
    INT. BACKGROUND - DAY
    @ or &overlay NAME create
    &overlay NAME opacity 1

  • adding the overlay name to your background line:
    INT. BACKGROUND NAME - DAY with OVERLAYNAME

From there, you can spot direct the overlays using the Spot Direction tool to resize or move an overlay.
most epsiode given overlays spot correctly at their default position (0 0 in zone 1) and will only need to be layered
You can add your layer to the background line:

INT. BACKGROUND - DAY with OVERLAYNAME at layer 0

or you can type it out under your background line:

INT. BACKGROUND - DAY
&overlay OVERLAYNAME moves to layer 0
