Question anbout colouring tutorial

[MrChoy]

Lemec's colouring tutorial video he seems to be able to right click erase the last line drawn whilst leaving the previous line intact.
Does anyone know how to do that?. I can't seem to be able to do it and It doesn't look like one of his whizzy customizations.

hasn't it something to do with the "Dry" drawing tool option ?

I've turned on the 'drying' option but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Is there another 'Dry' setting somewhere?

well, Lemec should be better placed than me for a detailed answer, but afaik, I think he was using his "Toggle Drying" shortkey, each times he wants to preserve the image's content, he hits the shortkey, so only the new strokes will be erasable after that ...
try this : on an empty page, with the Pen tool, Dry = On, draw 2 strokes, if you RMB-Draw on them, the 2 strokes will be both bitten (erased),
now turn the Dry option Off, and draw 2 new strokes, if you RMB-Draw on them, you should erase the 2 last strokes but not the 2 first ones.
if memory serves, I think you should find his "Toggle Drying mode" script somewhere in the Content Sharing section.

Thanks for that. It looks like I should work my way through lemecs old posts. He is the fount of animation groovyness.
I've been trying to work in Toonboom Animate and that is one of it's useful built in features. It's quite exciting to see it in TVP
