You want to animate - and we are here to help. If you don’t find the answers you need here, please ask at our Discord server or our forum.

Let’s begin…

Working habits

The guidelines we give here are just that. It’s a guide. There is no right or wrong way to do things in animation, and when you get more experiences, you will develop your own habits and methods.

Pencil V3 is a rewrite of Pencil that aims to fix major performance and scalability issues of the application. The new version is under heavy development and we are expecting GA builds in June. The following list summarizes important changes in the new version: Pencil V3 uses Electron instead of Mozilla XULRunner as the runtime. Download Pencil2D for free. Pencil2D is a cross-platform animation/drawing application. Pencil2D is an animation/drawing application for OSX, Windows and Linux. It lets you create traditional hand-drawn animations (cartoons) using both bitmap and vector graphics.

Until then you can rely on our recommendations.

The user interface

Before we go to animation, let’s have a quick glance at the user interface.

In the top you have the menu bar. Here you can load and save files, import images, add layers and much more.

In the bottom you’ll find the time-line, that keeps track of your key-frames.

To the left and right you’ll find dockable windows, where you can select tools, colors, choose settings and more.

In the middle you have the canvas. The canvas is unlimited in size. The white rectangle in the middle of the canvas, is the camera field. When you open Pencil2D the first time, this size will be 800x600 pixels, but you can change it by double-clicking on the camera layer. Remember that the bigger camera field you choose, the more RAM and computer power you use and need.

Let’s animate!

Right above the time-line you’ll find these buttons. Here you can Add, Remove and Duplicate key-frames.

Be sure you are on the bitmap layer and on frame 1. Select the pencil tool, and set its width to 4 or 5. Draw a small circle in the middle of the field.

Go to frame 2. Press the Add key-frame button. Draw a small circle a little to the right of the first one.

Go to frame 3. Press the Add key-frame button. Draw a small circle a little to the right of the second one.

Go to frame 1 again. Press the Play icon, and hooray! - you’ve made your first animation.

If you find it cumbersome to press Add key-frame every time you want a new key-frame, you can make your life easier. Go to the menu and pick Preferences. Press the Time-line icon. Where it says “When drawing on an empty frame:” you choose the first option “Create a new key-frame”. Dod flip ifr supplement pdf printer. Now, every time you go to an empty frame and start drawing, a new key-frame will be created on that frame.

Onion skin

To help your animation process, you can turn onion skin on or off. Onion skin is the ability to see the previous and/or next keyframes. In the Preferences you can set the number of drawings to show and their transparency.

You can choose to have up to 60 keyframes shown as onion skin, but we recommend that you choose one or two drawings. The transparency is a matter of taste. Values between 15 % and 50 % seems to be a good choice.

In the Display Options dock, you can turn onion skin on and off. Here you can also set the color of the previous drawings to red, and the next drawings to blue. This color coding can be very helpful. Here is how a simple ball-animation looks like with red and blue onion skin.

If you press this button on the timeline: the onion skin doesn’t show the previous and next keyframe, but the previous and next frame. In the following illustration you can see that this is no help.

When you animate, you often need the same tasks done. That could be to change from the Pencil tool to the Eraser tool and back.

Most of the tasks in Pencil2D have shortcuts, and you can see the shortcuts in the menu or in the Preferences. Let’s look into the Preferences.

Press the Shortcut icon at the bottom, and you’ll see this list.

Edit the shortcuts

All these shortcuts are editable, so you can customize it your needs.

Here are the shortcuts for the tools:

/ati-awrdacpi-vga-driver-download.html. If you want to change the shortcut for the Select tool, which is ‘V’, you can do it directly, by selecting the ToolSelect in the shortcuts window and then placing the cursor in the shortcut text box, and enter the new shortcut, or you can delete it first by pressing ‘Clear’ and then enter the new shortcut in the text box.

Here we have cleared the shortcut for ToolSelect, and want to enter the new shortcut. We place the cursor in the textbox and press ‘E’. Unfortunately, the ‘E’ is taken by the Eraser tool, so you are given the choice of overwrite the shortcut or cancelling.

After 6 months of work, we’re finally ready to wrap up the version 0.6.3 with new features, enhancements and bug fixes that have been worked on by the community. Please download it here and enjoy animating.

Many of these fixes and enhancements were made possible by contributors around the world that learned of our project through the #Hacktoberfest2018 event sponsored by Digital Ocean and Github

To everyone that contributed and made this release possible. Thank you!

Flipping / Rolling

#978 (by David Lamhauge)

Flipping & Rolling are two techniques that allow animators to quickly preview their animation work.

Flipping is used mostly for the process known as in-betweening with 3 drawings. By pressing Alt+Z, you can glance through the first drawing (previous key), the last drawing (next key) and the currently edited inbetween.

Rolling technique is used to check a specific part of the action of the animation. By pressing Alt+X, you can preview 5 drawings in ordered sequence flipping with all your available fingers.

Known Issues

Pencil 2d Download For Android Download

While there seems to be a growing list of Know issues, make no mistake, we are working hard on reviewing and fixing them as thoroughly as possible, and with this release you’ll notice plenty of improvements on key areas so don’t worry!

  • #748, #1004, #1098, #1120, #1170 Miscellaneous undo/redo issues. Should hopefully be fixed in v0.6.5.
  • #940 project is corrupted because comma is used as decimal separator in some countries instead of period. Some fixes were applied, but the issue is persisting.
  • #1033 Sound import and playback does not work with the Linux AppImage. Workaround: use flatpak or your distro package manager (if it offers the latest version).
  • #1117 The CLI (Command-Line Interface) export operation consumes more memory than exporting from within the editor itself.
  • #1019 The program may crash or erase selection content when using the ALT + TAB / APPLE + TAB / SHIFT + TAB shortcut.
  • #1120 Undoing Selection Flip X / Y will delete the drawing instead.
  • #1133 Lag and buggy strokes with Huion tablets. Workaround: disabling the “linear optimizer” in your tablet driver may help if that option is available, see this post.
  • #1174 Inconsistent palette import behavior: Depending on which palette file format is used, the new palette may append or overwrite the existing palette.
  • #1177 Imported image position is modified by the canvas view center
  • #1179 Currently there’s an audio delay of 1-2 frames for in-editor playback & exported files. However on some systems the opposite happens where the audio delay on playback might be longer by 12-16 or more frames, but on export it works ok.
  • #1186 Quick Sizing is enabled on Paint Bucket Tool, but does nothing.
  • #1189 Zoom shortcut on drawing tools not working properly with the Middle Mouse Button (Win) and mouse input in general (macOS)
  • #1192 When using the flipping & rolling feature, if you quickly try to drag the scrub header when the action occurs, Pencil2D will crash. (there is a fix already awaiting approval)
  • #1193 The feather slider widget (Brush Tool) has a higher max value than the input value, and any value above 96 pixels will not allow you to paint.
  • #1195 The update check prompts an error because there is currently no other update to get
  • #1196 A unerasable stroke appears when drawing if you turn off the pressure sensitivity checkbox with drawing tools.
  • Playing back audio from any frame other than the first will slightly off-sync the audio in the editor. For now we recommend playing back sounds from the beginning and gauging the sound particularly for lipsync or musicalized action. Afterwards check your output with a dedicated video editor to avoid sync issues.
  • Color Palette (Bitmap): First Swatch is unchangeable. Can’t use replace command. Use the other swatches to create your own colors or change it by editing the palette in a vector layer or via XML.
  • Color Palette (Bitmap): Swatches will only update using the Replace command when having a vector layer active. (Note: Create your custom palettes with a vector layer selected)
  • Selection Tool (Rotation): Using the SELECT ALL command (CTRL + A) and rotating a selection, will store the rotation transformation, if you create a selection and click on the drawing with the MOVE TOOL, it will rotate the selection again. Despite possible use cases this is a bug.
  • Undo: Undoing a drawing modification made on an empty frame creates a keyframe on that frame.
  • Undo: Undoing moving a keyframe to a new frame will create a blank keyframe on the place where it used to be.
  • Undo, Smudge Tool (Bitmap): You cannot UNDO the smudge tool at the moment.
  • Blur Tool (Bitmap): Pressing ALT with smudge tool doesn’t work, do not use it. Use other drawing apps for smudge effects.
  • Fill Tool (Vector): Filling a stroke requires the stroke to be selected.
  • Fill Tool (Vector): “stroke thickness” option will reset pressure sensitive lines width.
  • In general the Vector Engine is a WIP or not working as intended. Much more work will be required, please don’t use it.
