Welcome to Ulead COOL 3D 3.0
Unparalleled 3D titling capabilities puts Ulead COOL 3D at the vanguard of its kind.
With this latest version, new tools, plug-ins, and other enhancements let you delve further
into the unlimited depths of your creativity to produce still and animated 3D titles and
other fun projects that you can use to liven up Web pages, videos, and presentations.
Experiment and take advantage of all the power that Ulead COOL 3D has to offer, and
discover why it remains the industry leader in 3D titling software.
Whats new
Ulead COOL 3D brings you a wide range of new features that give you increased flexibil-
ity when creating and outputting your 3D projects. New plug-in effects add extra spice to
your animation, and new tools let you do just what you’ve always wanted to do - create
graphic objects and simple geometric 3D shapes that you can use in your projects.
• Path Editor With this new tool, you can create customized graphic
shapes that you’ve always wanted to use in Ulead COOL 3D
projects, without having to use external vector graphics software.
This feature offers you a multitude of tools for creating and editing
shapes, and tracing images. It even lets you convert simple raster
graphics to vector graphics.
• 3D Geometric Shapes The Geometric Toolbar makes it easy to
insert and edit simple three-dimensional geometric objects into your
projects. You can put spheres, cones, cylinders, cubes, and pyramids
into the picture, all of which you can customize.
• New plug-ins This new version expands your creative potential with
whole new plug-ins. Transition plug-ins make one string of text move
to another in amusing and unexpected ways, and a new Bevel plug-in
lets you apply special bevel shapes to your objects for eye-catching
results. The Distort effect stretches your title to new perspective,
while the Motion Path plug-in lets your text string move in unusual
ways along specially designed paths.
• Enhanced GIF animation output You now have additional options
when outputting your project as an animated GIF. Among others, you
can create a global palette, remove redundant pixels, and loop the
animation.
• Object Manager This convenient tool lets you easily determine how
the various objects in your project are grouped together, giving you
more control when editing.

Ulead COOL 3D 3.0
• VIO support More options are available to you when creating
videos. Among other things, you can preview the final video file,
make advanced video settings, and output your project to the
QuickTime file format.
• New file formats supported Ulead COOL 3D lets you take advan-
tage of the latest in 3D technology - with this version, you can output
your project to the RealText 3D format for convenient use on the
Web, and you can also import complex 3D images in the DirectX file
format (*.X).
• Key frame control improvement Create animations with even
greater control by taking advantage of modifications in key frame
controls. These let you manipulate the first and last key frames (for
plug-in effects) and show/hide your 3D objects as well.
• Enhanced preview performance With the new playback cache, you
can now preview your 3D animations with greater speed.
• Click the Help button, then move the cursor to the object in ques-
tion, and click again to find out more on that feature.
• Go to the Help: Help Topics menu command to get more detailed
information on a certain subject.
• If you are a registered user, you are entitled to Ulead technical
support. This can be accessed through the Help: Ulead Technical
Support menu command, or go to our Web site by clicking the
Ulead Homepage button on the Standard Toolbar. Other helpful
information is available through the newsgroup at
comp.graphics.apps.ulead.

In the next diagram, two key frames have been added to the color timeline. At key frame 1
the object is red, at key frame 5 it is blue, and at key frame 10 the object is green. When
previewing the animation, you see the object’s color start out at red, gradually transform
to blue and finally to green.
Below is a simplified diagram of the default timeline for an object’s color. It contains 10
frames and always has a key frame at frame 1 of the animation. At this key frame, the
object is set to be red. When you preview the animation, the object remains red in all
frames.
Because each property has its own timeline, you can control multiple timelines in your
animation, as shown in the following illustration. Not only can you set the timing within
each timeline, but you can also control the timing of events between the many timelines by
coordinating their key frames, as if you were a director telling your various actors what to
do and when to do it. After you familiarize yourself with timelines and key frames, you
can also work with multiple objects that have multiple key frames.
