Layers

A Layer in LightAct is a very flexible concept. It can do many different things so playing video or audio is just one of them.

Layer Layouts

Good to know: Layer Layouts is LightAct's node-based visual scripting system.

Good to know: we've created dozens of Stock Layer Templates for you that fulfill all the most common functionalities you'll need in a typical project. In most cases, you won't have to modify any of the nodes.

The main building block in any layer layout is a node. With various nodes, you can build complex behavior and even conditional action flows.
