Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

When animating now and then you accidentally touch the slider bar when you're drawing close to the edge of your paper (project window). (Especially when roughing with broad strokes). Your drawing moves then anywhere depending on where you touched the slider bar.

Maybe it would not be a bad idea to be able to lock the slider bars. For example with a small button on the slider bar itself, so when you want to use it you unlock by grabbing the slider bar on the lock-button. OK, there'still the weak spot of the button, but the chance hitting that is a lot smaller than the whole slider bar.

Are the slider bars necessary anyway on the project window? since when you're working it's a lot faster and easier to move around using the Alt modifier. I'm just talking 'bout my own experience. Mayby others use those bars a lot in their way of working?

Have you tried the Hide user Interface arrow on the top right corner? You can use the Remote Control Panel in conjunction with that one. I personally like to just make my drawing area smaller within the project window. This way it's easier to see the binding boxes and other lines used by the camera and FX stack.

Thank you Paul, now I really feel like a frog. I think I have to read the help file again. Thanks for explaining.

Again TVP team wins!

don't read anything, just keep coming here when you need something,
it's the faster way to learn, even for a frog in the middle of the summer.


... and a frog can go fast, believe me !
