Rendering the Photo Mix

Here we have added a total of 25 dots to the photo mix and are ready to render it to a file for use outside of Morpheus Photo Mixer. 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 Mixer.

In order to render your photo mix, 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 photo mix later on. Rendering creates a file which can be emailed or displayed in other programs, but which cannot be changed by Morpheus Photo Mixer in the future.

At the Save As window, you can select a location to render your photo mix 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 photo mix into.

JPEG and PNG formats are the best for displaying on webpages. Here we will render to a JPEG picture by selecting JPEG from the "Save as type" dropdown.

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