Customising Chroma Masking Frame in VS10

I've been using the chroma & masking frame features in VS10. There are only a few selection for adding masking frame on the video. Does anyone knows how to add more masking frame. It would be easy to create a custom mask but I have no idea how to put this in VS10 as part of the selection under chroma masking attribute.

I don't know but if you're in a hurry you can do this.
Create your mask and put it in \VideoStudio10\Samples\Image,
replacing one of the M01..M14.bmp masks.
Let's say you made a copy and replace M01.bmp, then you select the first thumbnail in the attributes tab.
The Program will still display the same thumbnail in the selection box but will apply your new mask as you can check in the preview window.

Until someone tells you the real solution you will be able to continue your project.

Thank you daniel for the quick fix. That will help me for now. I wish someone knows a better way so that I can create a library of frames and don't have to keep renaming the frames. The downside to the quick fix is that it may get confused when you open up other vs file that uses the same frame and keeping track of which frame you used with the same names.
