Reapply last action just to Selected Heads

Post by Svengali »

Here is a little TVPX containing one button (and a one-line embedded script) that some TVP animators might find useful.

In a layer where a number of frames have been selected, you can stamp a brush, then Undo the brush, then press Enter to re-stamp the brush over the length of the selected frames. Unfortunately, what happens is, when the stamped brush is re-applied, all of the selected EXPOSURE frames are turned into HEAD frames by being stamped.

With this button called "Reapply Heads Only":
You can do the same process: Select several frames (which includes heads and exposures), stamp a brush, Undo the brush, then press this button. This time, only the Head frames are stamped with the brush... leaving all the exposure frames as they were.

For example, in the above selected section (frames 4 through 9) if you stamp a brush on frame 9, then Undo and press the "Reapply to Selected Heads" button, frames1, 6, 8 and 9 will be stamped… the other frames (2,3,4, 5 and 7) will remain exposures.

If ENTER was pressed, all the frames (4 through 9) would be stamped and converted to HEAD frames.
