Animation: moving multiple timeline frames #1215

Open askmeaboutlo0m opened 5 months ago

askmeaboutlo0m commented 5 months ago

Letting you select multiple frames and then dragging them around, just like you can with one frame.

MorrowShore commented 5 months ago

This feature would essentially allow a series of manipulations to a number of cels or frames at once.

The manipulations that are being considered include the following:

  1. Moving the selection back and forth in its track to adjust the order.
  2. Changing dedicated duration to each selected frame / cel to adjust the playback speed.
  3. Inflicting visual changes to the entirety of selection.
  4. Moving the canvas across all the frames / cels in the selection.
  5. Moving selection across tracks.

As this feature request has many parts, it may or may not be split into different issues after the base is implemented.

This feature could also include: 1- Cel linking, which essentially converts selected cels to a single keyframe (static). 2- Colorizing selected frames or cells (does not affect output and only servers for quicker discerning purposes) 3- Grouping & naming cels or frames (may not be needed after animation overhaul)
