Rearranging the frames/exposures around the same layer?

Post by mittenkiss »

Hello everyone!

I'm new to TVPaint and I'm messing around with pose to pose. While I'm watching a tutorial, I didn't realize that I was drawing on the wrong frame, and I don't feel like having to copy and paste, or delete and redraw it, etc.

Is there anyway for me to drag the frame around the same layer?

Thank you

Yes. Select the image (or images) you want to move , click and hold on the image(s) and drag to where you want to move the image(s). When you release the image(s) you should see a pop-up with options: Move , Copy, Insert

Hello, it is possible to drag a selection of instances on a layer:

Just select the instances you want to move around and drag them to their destination. If it it on a spot where other instances are present, the "insert" option is preferred to avoid replacing drawings in that area.
