here i am

so the image



_in fact most of times, my pngs are deformed buy assembling on frame 01 and / or animating it

some people told me about putting in svg and if any mistake in animation, push the points on several keyframes to ajust and get the animation better

hope to be better understood and accept my appologies due to bad english level

regards

One thing to try to do is to adjust the bone influence or strength to cover more of the image that a bone should be controlling. Bone strength determines how much of the image that a bone controls.

You said you have version 8? If you upgrade to the latest version you could use the "use selected bones for flexibinding" feature to limit the number of bones controlling a single image layer. This means though, that the image should be in "parts", one arm would be a single image layer, then select just the arm bones for flexibinding.


Another option is to not use bone warping at all. In the image layer options, there is a check box to "warp using bones". Uncheck that box.

If the image is not deformed by bones you need to use layer binding to control individual image layers by binding the layer to a bone. This means you can't use "one big image" for your character. You would need to break it up into parts.
