Fine. Would be great.

Then I know you can make that setting now.

what do you use to do that?

i have re-used the button from the old animator panel called: Duplicate the current layer and clear heads.

it keeps the original layer groupcolorcode...

Yes I used to do that before. But now I cant find that. Is it gone.

If it's not much work Peter, it would be great if you send upload it here.

Thanks!

Thanks, for the file, Peter!

I have been away from TVpaint for a while so I realize that I had forgotten many things, but they keep coming back quite fast luckily.

Now the layer come below the source layer. Is is possible to set it to duplicate above instead?
And can you set a prefix to the name as well?
