<a name="999650"> </a>Frame after frame of a Corel Painter movie can flow from the Image Hose.
</p>
<p id="999651" class="Body">
<a name="999651"> </a>The frame size describes the "Item Size." If you're creating a movie just to turn it into a Nozzle, set the frame size just large enough to hold your largest image element.
</p>
<p id="999652" class="Body">
<a name="999652"> </a>You can use the selection in each frame to control the shape of the images.

<li class="SmartList1" value="4"><a name="999669"> </a>If you didn't create selections in a frame of the Frame Stack, you can create the selections now. </li>
<p id="1005887" class="ToDoBody">
<a name="1005887"> </a>Remember, each image element must be included in the selection.
</p>
<li class="SmartList1" value="5"><a name="999679"> </a>Save it as a RIFF file. </li>
<p id="1005894" class="ToDoBody">

<p id="999681" class="Body">
<a name="999681"> </a>The Make Nozzle from Movie command automatically creates a 1-Rank nozzle. If you want, you can use this technique to create a 2-Rank nozzle.

<li class="SmartList1" value="1"><a name="999683"> </a>Arrange the image elements in sets according to the second rank. </li>
<p id="1005918" class="ToDoBody">
<a name="1005918"> </a>For example, if the second rank is a progression in color, the movie should be arranged "red set, purple set, blue set" and so on. Each "set" is the first rank progression.

<li class="SmartList1" value="5"><a name="999690"> </a>Edit the statement to describe the nozzle index you created. </li>
<p id="1005946" class="ToDoBody">
<a name="1005946"> </a>For example, "12 items" describes a 1-Rank nozzle with 12 image elements. Changing this to "4 by 3 items" describes a 2-Rank nozzle with four items in rank 1 and three items in rank 2.
<li class="SmartList1"><a name="1008631"> </a>Do not allow empty frames at the end of the movie. The total number of frames must equal the number of elements in Rank 1 multiplied by the number of elements in Rank 2. </li>
