... and Fanany would chase me down a hole, ... ideed, Fanany used to be rutheless in his judgement, :P but it's the past now, and he is more compliant by now, forbearing little mistakes and other wrong attitudes ... :) but he may recover his natural intransigence at any time, so don't push him ! :D...

...I tried to find the sketches of cats which I believe Hokusai did, in brush and ink, but either I got the artist wrong or nobody had bothered to scan those. I think rather "artist wrong", the cats drawing you are refering at is probably the one from the "sohistu gafu" sketchbo...

if you are using a custom drawing-tool button, your new curve(s) should be recorded again (updates) in the button, so, firsty tweak your profile connection(s), then RMB-click the custom button and " Grab Current Tool with Colors, Keep Icon ", the new settings will be recorded for this tool...

Sierra, I suppose you already have downloaded and installed the Instance Panel from the content sharing section. that's done, here' my way : first, make the animlayer with the line-drawings the current one, - click the [Cl] button, which basically duplicates the current layer, but empties the heads,...

the Animations, User Stories and DemoReel links still work.


though I can't figure who will want to be part of their next demo reel now!

yes, it's the normal behavior,
to get separated instances, (one head each frame), do as mentioned above,
select all and Break.

(or, alternatively, use the old "Duplicate Image" command).

... the Animator Toolbar and Board-0-matic will remain Bauhaus' property. That means that these plugins will not be ported 'as is' on the current TVPaint programs. I've asked for the possibility to use BOM with TVPA, here's their answer : Thank you for your inquiry. I'm afraid the reply may not hel...

yeap, and thanks to all the new-comers to participate,
making this place warmer and warmer!

after stretching the layer, she probably have to [Select All Frames + Break] it.

ps: [Break] is the "B on yellow" button from the Instance panel.

yeap, afaik, the special offer concerns the Mirage owners,
tvpa will use the same (Mirage) dongle to work unlimited.

when you stretch an animlayer, you have new options :
- repeat/hold, ...
- add empty exposures,
- add empty images,


if you are in repeat/hold mode, the icon stay on the head only,
the others frames become exposures,
that's the instance technology!

not with the same scanner, but here's how I go : - firstly, in tvpa I choose the acquire Option (create new project/create new layer/append to current layer), - then Acquire/ your scanner, to open the scanner interface, when I multi-scan drawings, once the drawing scanned, the scanner interface swit...

haven't you tried to update to the latest wacom driver (pro605-7_int.exe) ?
also I've read somewhere that the wacom pen settings should be the same for all the apps,
I don't experienced this sort of problem, because the only app I'm using with the wacom pen is TVPA .

welcome Sierra, nice to see you again! :) about being stuck with your pen, it's weird... :o the trial version (demo mode) is supposed to work with the wacom pen. have you the latest wacom driver installed on your system ? and have you tried to check on/off the "subpixel" option in the pref...
