Sorry Deb if this is a bit late. I'm frantically trying to get WebXealot 28 finished for tomorrow.

Do what I suggested by making the bitmap the background image.

Create the hole (whole?) as a separate shape. Use Apply Clip View to mask your sky elements inside the hole shape. Then edit the contents for each frame.
