Hi All,
I'm just experimenting with TVPaint but am a veteran animator with some questions. First, I'm right handed so I've set my "go to" keyboard shortcuts to use the "Q" and "W" for advancing frames with my left hand so I don't have to have it cross over to the arrow keys. Once I've roughed out a scene loosely, I like to set my timing. Now that the timing is set, I have "keys" with instances in between that are essentially repeats of the drawing at that frame. Say I want to drop a breakdown now in between two key drawings, is there some way to flip from actual drawing to drawing? I seem to be flipping from frame to frame or instance to instance, but if my scene is on twelves, that doesn't help. How do I flip from key drawing to key drawing?
Thanks!

Oh wait! I think I figured it out. Okay. I got this one.

Re: Key to key
I am not sure I completely understand, but I think I might somewhat understand. Depending on which version of TVPaint you are working with (9.5 or 10) you can take advantage of the different modes your Light Table has to offer. You can set it to see just Instances, Frames, Bookmarks, or image marks. Does this help you?
Oh wait; I just caught this before submitting:

So was my answer correct?

Well, I just reset my hot keys to "go to next instance" and that did it. Thanks for checking in though! I appreciate your help.
