Never Hide Overlay on Media

Each element (like overlays and covers) can be animated. Due to the Animation Direction you can decide whenever you wish to show or hide on Mouse Hover. In case you don’t wish to animate the elements, but always show them (can be set separately element by element) simple choose the “none” direction for this.

How To Show one Element always, but animate all other elements on the Media ?

• Edit the Skin where you wish to change the modification, or create a new skin.
• Add new Layers, or simple select the one you wish to always show
• Choose Animation in the Layer Settings
• Set The Animation “transition” to “none”

This element will not be animated and it will be shown always.

I made this but my Element still only shows on hover only?
