Bitmaps and time line.
Posted: Mon Mar 19, 2007 11:05 am
I'm doing a job animating cut out bitmaps and I have run into a annoying problem. Once they are assembled on a skeleton I'm finding I have to hop back to photo shop to tweak them. Here comes the problem - When I update the bitmap by going to the layer settings and re-selecting the source image it does not update. Rather I seem to have to select a different bitmap, close the panel, open it again and choose the original to get it to update. I would love to just have to press an update button.
Time line.
This one has irritated me for ever, I may have poster a feature request back in the mists of time but I think it's worth doing it again.
The frame marks on top of the time line are very useful in timing your animation - thick lines over the 0, 6, 12, 18 etc but only if you have frame 0 as part of your animation. I usually have that frame as a set up frame only so in fact I would ideally like the thick line to start on frame 1.
As a feature request I would love to have the major marks start on 1 or better still to have them user customisable.
Actually. An unlimited supply of frame markers (Not the existing ones) would fit the bill.
On a related note Is it just me who has a problem turning off the onion skin markers. I usually have to resort to using my mouse as apposed to stylus and even then it seems to take quite a few clicks.
