Managing TVPaint preferences

Post by Xavier »

You can find this info in many places in this forum, but I thought that it'd be better to pin it.
This is also described in the documentation : https://www.tvpaint.com/doc/tvp11/index ... nces-start

To reset your TVPaint default configuration, you just have to remove your configuration folder. Here's how to access this folder :
- on Windows, hit Win+R, then type %APPDATA% or just go to %APPDATA% in your file explorer.
- on MacOS, go to your home folder using the Finder, there should be a subfolder name Library
- on Linux open ~/.tvp
In there, look for a folder named "tvp animation 11" (standard) or "tvp animation 11 pro" (pro). By default, this is your configuration folder. So if you wish to restart blank, rename it or delete it.

But there is also a plan B: using the startup panel. To do so, in TVPaint go to Preferences > Startup and then change the "Startup Configuration" to "Open Startup Panel" :

The next time you start TVPaint, you'll see this window which lets you manage, create and duplicate configurations :
