Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

I want to change a position of a whole layer.

I dont want to use the keyframer because then it will make my two`s into one`s and I dont want that.
Just reposition the whole layer.

I have tried out the panning and transform tool trying to apply to whole Current layer but I could not make it work.

You can use the "use instance heads only" option in the FXStack.

fine,

Now the animation works better than when they are tranformed into 1`s.

But of some reason when running th fx it only makes the first images.
I must have done some setting wrong.

enclose a screen shot.

seems like you want to apply your keyframer fx on the layer "girl_walk_". The layer has only one head and you are trying to apply the fx on all instances heads. That is why you get that result.

Best is you create a layer with blank instances on 2's and then apply the keayframer fx there (on all instances and on heads)

So you have to add as many empty heads as you want to have in the new layer.

or

you can use the source maybe to change that ( well suing a copy so nothing goes wrong. )

most of the time I click on the source layer and use this button from the animator panel to create a blank layer for the keyframer:
But it depends how your source layer looks like and what you want to do with the keyframer.

Great,
Thats what I wanted. thanks!

Now just another thing that I did not get right.
In the middle of this walk I want to have a little rotation.
In the keyframer there are 3 different kinds of rotation.
Why are the difference between them?

/ Mattias

the three different rotations are for the X,Y and Z axis (blue, green, red).
just use the last one if you want to stay in the 2 dimensional space
