Reference View
Once you have a fully painted drawing, you can use it as a colour model and load it in the Reference view. This drawing can be used and loaded in any of your Storyboard Pro scenes.
Once a drawing is loaded in the Reference view, you can use the Colour Eyedropper tool to select a colour from the model and use it to paint in the Camera or Drawing view without having to pick the colour from the colour palette.
Do one of the following:
- From the top menu, select Windows > Reference View.
- From any of the other views, click the Add View button and select Reference View.
