This can't be a new question, but I can't find it anywhere in a search.
I need to simply reverse my line so that the line is white against a black background. How do I do this?
How do I reverse a black line on white to be a white line on black?

Hello Bruce,
If you want to change the color of your line from black to white, you will have 2 possibilities:
1) you can activate the Preserve Alpha option on your Layer and use paintbucket or filled stroke with your new color (white) and replace the black on each frame. You can learn more in the Doc https://www.tvpaint.com/doc/tvp11/index ... erve-alpha
2) you can use the Color Replacer effect in your FX Stack (rabbit ears in a hat button) and choose the color you need to change and the color you want, after set all the parameters you just have to apply it on each frame.

One other way you could do it is to have all your animation completed as black lines on white background.
Then change Background from white to None and from FX Stack use Stylize > Negative to change the black lines to white lines. (I would suggest you do this by duplicating your original layer of animation and applying the Stylize > Negative FX to the duplicate layer.)
