You might have to make your CTG layer an animation layer before effects can be applied. As long as it's a CTG layer, it relates to the line art of another layer, and in the same line that you cannot use any tools other than the squiggle and erase on it, you probably cannot use effects, actually it's...

Maybe you loaded a sound track into the project tab when you only want it in the clip tab. You can check by clicking on the sound wave icon in your project tab and delete what you find there. I'm only guessing, but I just had a double soundtrack and removing one from the project tab fixed it.

What you can do in the meantime is set your lightbox from "color" to "image color" mode - at least you'll be able to distinct the blue from the red lines, in case you don't know that already. I can imagine your suggestion to be useful, but I wonder if extra buttons on the light box panel won't eat u...

Yes, but as I said: after editing the colors of your panel, check the "use these colors only " box in your CTG color panel. Then it will reappear any time you get back to your CTG layer. In your screenshot, that very box is ticked off, so I guess that's why your panel doesn't reappear after changing...

Just check the "use these colors only" box of the CTG layer's palette once you're happy with. You can then change between layers, and the palette will automatically change matching your layer. When you want to edit the palette of your CTG layer, untick it again and back on when you're done. That sho...

Merci!

I'm preparing some pages to be printed with risoprint, and the printer recommended the use of spot colour channels in Photoshop. I want to work with TVPaint, however. I don't assume there is such a thing as an equivalent to spot colour channels in TVPaint, is there? I've only briefly looked into it ...

Part two of this question: Given that I have scenes of varying resolution depending on the character detail and how tight I want the field, how can I accurately output 1:1 resolution when the camera is not full frame, but say, cropped in a little? That is, a project which is 3000 pixels wide but co...

Well, I guess you need a little patience to get a feeling for the use of squiggles, as you do with every drawing or painting tool. Due to the complexity of the calculations it becomes a matter of gut feeling rather than conscious control, at least to me it did, and therefore an invitation to not mar...

Not a big issue, but I'd prefer if the X-sheet tab would not have to be reopened every time a project is, at least when there are existing X-sheet columns. I don't know if the tab vanishes for a purpose, but I can't imagine what purpose that would be.

Never mind, it seems to have sorted itself out after switching once over to the project tab's timeline view and back to the clip tab, for what reason ever. In other words, it suddenly works, hooray.

Hey all, I'm not sure whether I overlooked something in the documentation, but I have a problem with the audio tracks that I don't seem to be able to solve by myself: I loaded two audio files into a clip, and offset one of them so it should start after the other track ended, and from the look of the...

Sorry, I found it a second after posting the previous post of course

Hey Elodie,
I don't know if it registers as weird behavior, but the "view unread posts" button and whatever other options used to appear after logging in seem to have vanished. Maybe that's on purpose, I found it quite handy the way it was though.

I think checking the "Include lines" box in the Filling shape tool panel should help (if the tool and the box are still working and named as in version 10, that is).
