Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

Hello! I noticed something pretty disorienting in the project tab - timeline view. If I click between different clips, the cursor is acting funny. First it stays on where I click, but the second time I click back on the clip, it goes to the beginning of the clip. There seems to be no reason for this...

Don't know if it helps, but this happens on windows as well.
Glad I found this workaround though.

This feature is still existing and it's a bit confusing while teaching TVpaint.

If it was just called "FX stack", then user can do whatever they want.

Just a little streamlining possibility

Just tested this, and the split clip doesn't seem to work when there are no instances inside the clip. If i drag more exposures to the layer, up to the point where I want the split clip to happen, then the split clip works. (seems like tvp cant automatically create new instance to the beginning of t...

Thanks Melanie, Sorry, I should've told you that I know how to use the startup panel, I just seem to avoid it :) And now I want to make it easier for newcomers to reset the interface for learning purposes. There are some things that make it a bit hard to follow what's happening in the startup panel ...

When learning a new software, I always want to have the option to reset the interface to default. At the moment, in tvpaint, it’s relatively difficult to get back to the beginning. It requires to access the startup tab, create a new configuration, and start from there. Also, this new default doesn’t...

I tried this and I think there's something wrong.

%cln %i should (in my logic) give out
sketch 0
sketch 1
sketch 2
...

But instead it gives
sketch 0
sketch 0 0
sketch 0 0 0
Sewie, is this also what happens with your setup?

I didn't know you could do that, Thanks Thierry!

The only way I've managed to fix this, is by changing the resolution of the screen and drag tvp window to a different location.

I tried to open all my projects, but there is no error happening. It seems to happen only after I've been working on the files for some time.

I'll have to see if I can figure out if there is some pattern to these errors.

Yep, it was in automatic, but I was testing if that had anything to do with the issue. So it just stayed on while I was screencapping. And to clarify, in my last post I was referring also to another issue. If I float on top of the "automatic" tick box on "cache usage" (to learn w...

Yeah, I don't believe it's that, I've got 300 gb space left. I'm also curious about the Preferences tab, Memory&Cache. In cache usage - automatic, if I float on top of it, a pop up says this. Screen Shot 2017-09-15 at 11.38.43.png The pop up is referring to Undo cache, but seems like the undo ca...

We've been working with a 4k project. Usually if I've been working with one project, I can open another one with no problems. But if I want to open a third one, I sometimes get this. Screen Shot 2017-09-15 at 10.31.40.png Even if I close the two earlier ones, seems that something is full. What is it...

2) I'm not sure to understand the Keyframer part. I think Piotr means that why do you have to render the effect to the layer ? Why doesn't the effect work live, as in calculated on the go. Like what after effects is doing. My answer to this is, that I always thought it would be easier on the softwa...

Ok, good to know.
