Re: Odd ERASER behavior in 11.7.2

I'm having this exact same problem! Only that when I rotate the stylus from eraser to pen, my pen jumps to another colour I have used previously. So I'm drawing with blue, I turn the stylus around to erase, turn it back to draw and the Pen tool switches to green or black... I haven't had the color ...

Odd ERASER behavior in 11.7.2

EDIT: The problem has been resolved in update to version 11.7.3 . ----- I noticed a strange eraser behavior in 11.7.2 today - In 11.7.2 I was using the PENCIL tool to draw, then I turn the Wacom pen over to use the Eraser end -- which worked correctly -- but when I turned the pen over to resume draw...

Re: Questions about TVPaint 11.5.3

Hi, Joe, I'm not sure if you're still checking back to this forum, but there is now a better solution for what you want to do with turning your animatic clips into separate projects. Hironari Takagi of Studio WIT has made a script to automatically export clips to projects with the clip name intact. ...

UPDATE : There is a much better way to do this now , so ignore the bulk of my post below and use this: Hironari Takagi of Studio WIT has made a script to automatically export clips to projects with the clip name intact.

Re: Add the camera darkening/toggle to the camera options

Excellent idea. It make sense.

Re: Use of PNGs in After Effects

Hello David, this is something that will be discussed again during v12's life cycle, as it won't make it to v12.0. I still hope that PNG export settings can be fixed as soon as possible. (it's not a minor bug, because some clients specifically ask for image sequences delivered as PNGs, even though ...

Re: Mistakes in the user guide

In the user guide there are no instructions on how to use the Timesheet function (in face, "Timesheet" is not even mentioned in the User Guide). I realize that the Timesheet function is primarily used by Japanese users of TVPaint , but if the function exists in TVPaint it seems that it sho...
