Also, you can write/read text anywhere in the clip dialogue/notes textboxes, project infos, and you can write text files with george

Ah, good to know. Thanks!

Apart from the info not being up to date and most menu items under 'Help' not working, there really shouldn't be 2 'About' menu items. Same goes for preferences/settings. Just have those 2 items only where they're supposed to be and where users will expect them, which in macOS' case is under the 'TV...

Sometimes hitting escape works to get it back to work. Or hit escape multiple times. What could be causing this? I *think* it usually happens when switching applications. But also after playing the animation. Even on very simple files. Have not been able to reproduce it consistently, but it happens ...

l7v1lVvhu-Q In case anyone is interested in storyboarding in TVP and using my XML export script, here's a quick and dirty demonstration. The "Clips XML" button is a very fast way to go from a TVP Storyboard using Clips, to Premiere. It will keep your timing intact. I personally like 6 fps...

Figured it all out: // Variables dialogueLayerName = "DIALOGUE" dialogueLayerColor = 7 // Ask user to insert the dialogue tv_ReqString "multiline" "Dialogue|" IF CMP(result, "Cancel") || CMP(result, "") EXIT END text_to_add = result text_to_add = &qu...

I just noticed the "Put an X on Empty Instances" setting the in Display settings. It's a start, but what's not great about that solution is that it actually draws the eye towards the empty instance instead of the instance that has a drawing in there (drawings are often not filling the whol...

Nice

Ah, I didn't realise it was *just* released, just assumed I missed the popup before. Cheers

I got a popup for version 11.7.3, but couldn't see the changelog. (Clicking it didn't work show anything). I installed it anyway hoping to see the changelog during the process, but alas. While looking for the changelog I noticed none of the menu items under "Help" work in 11.7.3 anymore. E...

Hi everyone, Some questions regarding exporting and importing custom panels: When you export a new version of a TVPX panel, what do I need to do exactly so the end user can import it and keep all its shortcuts? The identification string should always be the same, that makes sense. The name should ha...

I hope the bug can be found and fixed at some point. Currently fixed my situation by disabling some settings in: Windows > Animation > Preview Settings (Seems to me these settings are better of as a tab in TVPaint Preferences, they are currently a bit hidden away in a place you really don't expect t...

Ok thank you. Understandable +1 from me for the feature request in that case! :) Some examples I would immediately use that are currently impossible (I think ): Create a shortcut that toggles between Project / Clip: Timeline tabs Create shortcuts to cycle trough - or choose presets of - color groups...

I'm storyboarding a project with about 40 clips. The project is currently about 1000 frames and set to 3 fps. When I hit play in the project view, sometimes frames show up of drawings that are not present in that frame, they're not even from the clip. Why is this happening? When I scrub the timeline...

Just a thought on how layer's are represented in the UI :) I really like TVP11 compared to 10. There's definitely some big improvements, but still a lots of quirks linger in the interface. https://www.lukaskrepel.nl/temp/TVP/layer_ui_suggestion.png Top image is current TVP11, lots of squares in view...

Can George check if we're in Project or Timeline tab?

-> I've got some tools that would benefit a lot if I could let them behave differently considering the current project/timeline view. Can I check what tab is currently active?
