Hey! Whenever I import several gifs into one canvas, I have the problem that all their originally cropped out edges show up again. (The crop tool is unhelpful because it only works with rasterized layers, but who am I telling this, you probably know that dsfsds).
Is there any way to import gifs sans edges without saving the finished gif, opening and turning it into video timeline format/smart object and dropping the gif file in the final canvas? (For me, this method always makes my gifs grainy which is why I'm looking for another solution.)
Are layer masks in the collage canvas the only option to deal with this?
Thank you in advance if you find the time to answer. And if not, then thank anyway, your blog is always tremendously helpful! :)
Hey anon! So sorry for the late reply!!
Crop tool: I'm not sure what you mean about the crop tool, but I think what's happening is the 'Delete Cropped Pixels' hasn't been selected (highlighted in orange below).
Once you have that box ticked, the cropped out edges (cropped pixels) won't show when you import them into another canvas.
About the importing: If you don't prefer importing them onto another canvas as a smart object from your video timeline, you can do the other method (Select All Frames -> Copy Frames -> Paste Frames... -> Paste Over Selection).
