Well, then I'm afraid that I was talking about the bookmarks all that time

I'm right clicking in the image, but I don't see any "Mark image"

which menu is it ?

En même si, votre logiciel est en Français, vous ne risquez pas de trouver "Mark image" dans le menu
Alors oui, il y a un bug que j'ai déjà noté auprès de nos amis développeurs : il faut cliquer sur "désactiver pour activer le marque image

(le bug n'existe pas dans la version anglaise)

Sans blague ?

Erreur de version de ma part… je ne risquais en effet pas de le voir… je n'avais pas lu le titre en entier… version .17 (ça bosse ! )

milles excuses !

Absolument cool !

… si en plus il y a un choix de couleur possible, c'est géant !

Thanks Elodie. I didn't find it because aparrentIy I did not have the latest version. I did not know that under the same version numbers there's different updates. Is there a way these new updates are communicated?
And indeed a cool feature. And indeed being able to give them different colors also seems a very good idea. Thanks Thanks Thanks.

they are, and rather frequently imo !
General Discussions / Announcements / TVP Animation 9.5.17 is now available !
last post of the last page, the announcement of the last available public release. (thanks to the team au passage)

OK, thanks. I learn every day. Only strange I had a version called 9.5.17 where I could not find the image marks. After updating to a new 9.5.17 they were there. Anyway...I'm now up to date and happy as a clown. Thanks.

I would appreciate an explaination of the image marks feature. What are they, and what are the uses of them? (it is possible that I missed a thread on this.)

The Image Marker allows you to mark individual frames or keyframes, and also brings the ability to flip between the marked frames.

Of course, you have to set key short to the functions "go to previous / next image mark" =)

you can use it for marking your extremes. Or just any other drawing you want to find back easily. It is handy for example when you're working on different layers, because it also activates the layer the drawing is in. So it actually helps you prevent to accidentally draw the eyes on the body layer (because you forgot to activate the layer).

If anyone sees other interesting uses, I would be happy to know them too.

Another advantage is that the marker (unlike bookmarks) always stays with the frame no matter where you move it or even copy it.

May I add the same question about : "mark In toggle" et mark Out toggle" ?

My guess is that it's there just because it can be done and that sooner or later one of us is always asking for something to be toggle-able so why not do it right away. I won't knock it because I like to toggle things more than anyone else, though right now I wouldn't know why.

Another advantage is that the marker (unlike bookmarks) always stays with the frame no matter where you move it or even copy it.

and when you copy the drawing it copies also the marker, which is very handy.
