Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

Hi there.

I have imported an audio file into TVP10 and I am using the Project Timeline to storyboard. However the "Separate Scene" button does nothing. This is very annoying because I cannot work without it unless I do the whole storyboard in one clip.



If anyone could help so I wont have to rearrange the entire project,,,

I tried setting the "Split Scene" shortcut and also doesnt work

IS the scene empty? I'm not sure from memory if you can split an empty scene, or maybe it was split a part of a scene that doesn't have a any frames at that point?

It has a bunch of frames. Is it because it could be that it is a clip? What is the differentiation between clips and scenes? I thought I could cut like something in premiere by splitting. i heard of people importing audio to make a storyboard, and then splitting a scene into many smaller clips. But I dont seem to be able to do that.

I guess I can add a clip before or after for new stuff I wanna add but then I would have to resize it and because the way TvPaint moves things around every new shot I add would alter the timing of the whole video.

If you go into that clip and then in the clip view do a 'split clip' it does seem to work... at least here it does?
oh wait split clip also works from the project view... but i'm in v11
so maybe its a v10 bug"?

Hi, which version of TVPaint 10 are you currently using?

HI! Tvp10 professional.

Anyway it was my fault. I thought Split Scene and Split Clip were the same thing. They are not. I also did not know "Split Clip" would be on the animator panel instead of the project panel. I may a keyboard shortcut to it so i wont loose it. problem is TVPaint resents its config everytime I open it (I had to manually put the CFG file from my previous computer on the DEAFAULT folder in programs so it loads a set config, but it never saves it). I'll probably make a thread on it.
