TVPaint Animation 11's first update is finally here, bringing lots of bugfixes, and also some nice new little things
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's new in TVPaint Animation 11.0.1 ?
General :
* An option has been added in the Preferennces panel (Display tab) regarding drag and dropping images in the timeline :
- if unchecked, behavior will be the same as 10.5 : no pop-up will appear when drag and dropping.
- if checked, behavior will be the same as 11.0.0 : a pop-up will appear when drag and dropping.
* Peg Holes have been added in the Light Table display (for OOP) for previous and next images/instances/...
* When extracting colors form a CTG Layer, resulting layers have the same opacity as the original CTG layer.
* A Contiguous option has been added to the paint bucket, selection: magic wand, cutting tool: magic wand (works like Photoshop), alongside with a Display checkbox in the selection: magic wand.
* The Break Instance option that was in TVPaint Animation 10's Animator Panel has been added to the Handy Panel (to have it, delete your Handy Panel, it will be recreated when you relaunch TVPaint).
FX Stack :
* A new FX has been added in the Color section : Scan Cleaner Color : it is similar to the Scan Cleaner, but works with colors
Here's an example of what it does. Let's take this scanned image :
And let's open the FX Stack, select Scan Cleaner Color :
A few words about the parameters names. The names were quite difficult to choose as the mathematical formulas behind them are complicated, so here's what they do :
- Stroke intensity : Sets the color intensity of the source image : the less the value, the harder the resulting colors will be.
- Global transparency : Sets the global transparency.
- Transparency profile : Lets you set the level of details to keep (it works the same way as the Scan Cleaner Black and White).
- Post-processing : Sets the background color.
- Background color : Choose the background color.
- Saturate lines colors : All colors will have RGB components with a value of either 0 or 255.
As a consequence of this new FX, the old Scan Cleaner has been renamed into Scan Cleaner Black and White. The online documentation will be updated soon.
Shortcuts :
* It is now possible to assign keys to previous and next mark in the History Panel.
George :
* A command has been added to retrieve AND set H, S and L colors.
Example :
Code: Select all
tv_GetAPen ["rgb"|"hsl"]
tv_GetBPen ["rgb"|"hsl"]
@return r g b a ( if no parameter (compatible mode) )
@return "rgb" r g b ( if "rgb" parameter )
@return "hsl" h s l ( if "hsl" parameter )
@return "error"
tv_SetAPen r g b | r g b a | "rgb" r g b | "hsl" h s l
tv_SetBPen r g b | r g b a | "rgb" r g b | "hsl" h s l
@return previous values: "rgb" r g b ( if r g b (compatible mode) )
@return previous values: "rgb" r g b ( if r g b a (to be able to use GetAPen result as parameters) )
@return previous values: "rgb" r g b ( if "rgb" parameters )
@return previous values: "hsl" h s l ( if "hsl" parameters )
@return "error"
Example :
Code: Select all
tv_projectrendercamera [id]
//@in id : storyboard id, or current storyboard if no parameter
//@return id : id of the created storyboard
