Hello,

It would be great to be able to have a selective playback based on the image mark. (there is a shortcut that can be set to flip through color 1,2, etc but it doesnt seem to be working properly (bug?))

This could be added to the image mark panel where you just select the color you want the playback to show. Being able to flip selected image marks (for exemple I select color 1 and 2 and flip only through these)

As of right now it is not possible to use similar animation technic as when animating on paper since we cannot choose which drawing to flip through.

What does the world think?

Can you explain this point ?

If you set a shortcut to flip through color 01, 02, etc.... and actually try it on a layer with multiple frames with different image marks, it just goes through some of the image marks but not all of them and if you let the shortcut go it will keep playing for a little while.

It think it has to do with which frame is currently selected. If you a frame with the same color(image mark color that is) has the image mark flip it will go through all of them. But if you select a frame with a different color then it will skip some.

You can flip between marked images (it works for me) but only one image at a time, when you press a shortcut. Then you can choose if you want the color to wraparound or not and to go to the next layer or not. So i d'ont really understand for this part of the question

But It would be really great if we can flip "in real time" between marked images (for exemple i mark my keys and the playback skips the inbetweens but keeping timing). It can be really usefull to compare the animation with and without the inbetweens to see if there is mistakes and if it's better with or without the inbetweens. So a great +1 for me

That's it!

Why does it do that? since the normal flip goes through everything?

That's more a navigation than a flip.

Well not really it what I am comparing it too is the shortcut "flip forward" and "flip backward" which when set goes though as many images as is set, in sec, in the preview settings panel.



That why I was asking why the behavior of the image mark flip color 01 doesnt behave the same way but only goes through one image instead.
