Yes, my bluetooth keyboard works to close and apply the splines (spacebar to make the menu appear with option to "Close Spline" , "Delete Point, or "Apply Spline") and click Enter key to apply spline. I also made a shortcut button on my custom sketch panel toolbar that is key command, "Shape: Apply" which works for easily applying a transform effect or any other action that needs to hit the Enter key to apply. I finding that it is important to make a free floating custom tool bar with my 10 most used tools . That tool bar is on screen at all times . My custom tool bar has my favorite pencils , kneaded eraser, standard eraser, shortcut buttons for Undo, Enter ("shape: Apply") , Toggle Layer panel on/off, enable Light Table, , and the Clear/Kill frame ("skull & crossbones") . Everything else stays in the side Docks. This allows me to keep the interface relatively clutter-free and maximizes the screen real estate of the Galaxy Note (this has been quite an adjustment for me to work on the smaller screen because I usually work on a 21" Cintiq with a second monitor.)
I'm trying to implement a similar solution - one economic, on-screen-at-all-times, custom panel containing essential buttons that are either my most often used or that negate dependence on keyboard-shortcuts for input (good luck with that ).
Are you creating the buttons inside the GNote10 TVPaint App? I'm trying to find an easy way to assemble my panels of existing buttons on my desktop TVPaint then import them into the GNote10 App.
I wonder if there is a way to just bundle custom button panels into TVPX files, then insert all as complete panels into the Beta: buttons, panels and George scripts in a single process?

I have a Galaxy Note and purchased a bluetooth keyboard to use with it. When I want the pop-up menu to appear I find I need to press and hold the spacebar first , then touch the tip of the S-pen to the timeline to make the pop-up menu appear. If I touch the timeline with the stylus first , then press the spacebar nothing happens. That may be what is happening in your case. Try it so you press and hold the spacebar , then touch the tip of the stylus to the timeline .

I find that it's easier for me to create the custom buttons I need in TVPaint running on my Mac laptop , then I save them as .tvpx files and transfer them to the GNote10 via bluetooth file transfer and load them into TVPaint .
Hello, I finally bought a bluetouth keyboard for my tablet, but i'm afraid TVpaint doesn't recognize the CTRL key, is it normal ?
It annoys me a lot since a can't use some shortcuts :-/
in fact tvpaint sees my keyboard as QWERTY whereas it works fine outside the app, it would be nice if you could fix it.
Ctrl is NOT working on my bluetooth keyboard. there is other keys that I cannot assign keys to. For instance numpad 2 and numpad 5. I think it is a known bug.

I like the fact that this software package hasn't dumbed itself down, just because it's on a tablet. I like that it's full featured and it's why I'm going to buy it when it's available and I have the funds.
TVPaint literally completes my Galaxy Note 10.1, it transformed it into a workstation level tool that I use daily to sketch out ideas and digitally paint on. Even though I don't need/know of all of the features it offers, I find that whenever there's something I do need, TVPaint has it at my disposal; which if this wasn't the case, that would be a problem.
There's too many dumb apps out there already, a real application like TVPaint is a welcome change.
Anyways, thanks again for offering this beta and then extending it.
I'm with Twig on this one. I like having all the features that I can get. They're already too many useless app in the market. This one is very useful. I love it and it has transformed my Note 10.1 into something marvelous. Thank you!
I loves it! I had downloaded a trial of TV Paint for my PC years ago, but had trouble understanding the interface at the time. When I heard about the Android beta, though, I was is was on it immediately! I know more about animation now so it wasn't so difficult to figure out what I needed. I've been using it to develop concepts and rough out painted compositions for a graphic novel project.
I was using Sketchbook Pro for Android, but the features were so limited I kept looking for alternatives. I use Photoshop on my PC as well as MyPaint and The Gimp, and I'm experimenting with Krita Sketch, but the Photoshop app for Android didn't seem worth it and none of my other options had Android versions.
I have a Thinkpad, 2 years old, bought from a software engineer friend. Hardly cutting edge! Once I did get used to the layout and rooms system, though, I was so happy with how powerful it was! The only reason I can think of for a more stripped down interface would be for older, rickety systems that would be predominantly using the software as a drawing/painting program without the animation element.

And if you want more space ( less panels on the screen ) you can put them in the left/right bins, and you can then hide these bins.
You can hide your timeline too. So at the end you could have something like this :
