Written notes as suggested, or what I do when I'm working out a custom effect , take screenshots each step of the way , so I can go back to check the settings or which paper I used , things like that . However, if you're in the FX Stack, you can Add the FX to a the FX bin , so you can call it up lat...

well... the camera section is checked but still doesn't show up anything..

See the box to the left of the 24 FPS in the play back bar under the project window? Click on that box to enable the camera view play back.

Oh I meant, when I set the new project. I set the drawing area should be 2 times bigger than camera view in ratio which you can check in the photo copy I attach. I can't see the extra drawing area that I could draw more out of canvas. I made a New Project with the same dimensions as shown in your s...

I can't view your video in either Firefox or Chrome (with Flash enabled in both browsers) here on the TVPaint Forum. All I see is a blank white space.

However, I can view it at the link: https://www.behance.net/gallery/7500548 ... n-Showreel

The updated section on the Video Input is better , https://www.tvpaint.com/doc/tvp11/index.php?id=lesson-import-export-video-options-video-input , the photos showing a more typical table top stop motion set up demonstrate the function of the video input more clearly , but it could still use some fur...

This is a wish. I wish that when you zoom out on the timeline, you did not lose the last instance handle. That is, the little square at the bottom right of the instance. Not on all of them, but on the last one only. That way, you could zoom out, grab the handle and quickly drag that instance to cov...

The entire film is online now . (I think all the films on the "short list" for the Academy Award are currently playing online for a limited time ; not sure if this one will stay up on the NFB site or if this is a limited-time only . As of January 4, 2018 , it's available .) -- https://www.youtube.co...

I've tried Krita , it's very nice. However , as a rule I prefer to work as much as possible within the same application , so my answer would be TVPaint. But this is sort of like the old question : which pencil is best -- Tombow 2B or Blackwing 602 ? (to name just two of the many options) but the ans...

The TVPaint project size is 4096 x 3072 , 7 layers, 185 frames , export via Clip: Layers Structure , all Layers and Frames , as .PSD . Resulting .PSD file is 2.84 GB (the .tvpp file was 1.79 GB). The 2.84 GB .PSD file won't open in Photoshop. Photoshop says: "Could not complete your request because ...

Here is a little update on this issue. A colleague messaged me: "Yes-- I got the same error message... but it's because the file size is too large to open in Photoshop . When I downscaled it in TVPaint first , it opened fine in PS." So , that's very interesting. I did not realize that Photoshop had ...

I just noticed a problem when exporting a TVPaint project (all Layers and Frames) as a PSD file , trying to open the exported PSD file in Adobe Photoshop CC 2019 it gives an error message: "Could not complete your request because the file is not compatible with this version of Photoshop." Screen Sho...
