Chad, Someday, some one will write the definitive TVPaint Handbook... I'd buy it. Meanwhile, your offer of free assistance is very generous. I think the (Japanese language only) TVPaint book you refer to is available on Amazon, from Hironori Takagi , who posts here, regularly... sven I also remembe...

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...

Thanks for the clarification , Chad.

(and you made the right decision ! Time spent with your family is way more important.)

To add to Cardin's post above, you can also do this from the Handy Panel > Managing Instances > +1 .

I've been searching everywhere to buy a copy of TVPaint Handbook , it is sold out everywhere... I had a copy reserved on Amazon, but they had sold out, even after I had a copy saved for me.

For people using TVPaint on MacOS,here is something I accidentally discovered (and caused me quite a bit of trouble before I found the source of the problem!) Somehow, I inadvertently enabled a setting called Full Keyboard Access in Accessibility (in the System Preferences). This setting will mess u...

About 99% of the time I'm working on my Cintiq. However, today I needed to work away from home using my old Macbook Pro (running MacOS 10.14.6 Mojave) and my Intuos Pro tablet and grip pen. I'm using TVPaint 11.7.2. Here is a strange thing I noticed: I have my Intuous grip pen buttons set to Upper B...

Salut les animateurs, je suis un utilisateur de TVPaint, un logiciel de dessin et d'animation 2D. Je voudrais savoir comment faire pour exporter une animation au format GIF avec TVPaint, car je ne trouve pas cette option dans le menu.

You should probably contact TVPaint Support directly through their Contact Us form on the main TVPaint website: https://tvpaint.odoo.com/en_US/contactus to see if perhaps they can set up a TeamViewer session to troubleshoot what is causing this. I looked at the screencapture video you posted. The on...

Thank you D.T. I will mark this thread as resolved as this answers my questions. Unfortunately, even though this is the answer, I am not happy with how unnecessarily difficult TVPaint seems to make what I think should be a simple task in most other animation softwares (adjusting camera position per...
