First of thanks for this awesome tool. Especially the upcoming dragonbones support is a really cool move. Just saw this video of grease pencil + bones in action and I'm curious if It would be possible to use the coa_tools exporter to get such an animation into your game engine of choice?

Coa tools would need to be able tp convert grease pencil drawings into a spritesheet somehow..

Not sure how complicated that would be

Grease Pencil Support is not going to happen. COA tools is based on a bitmap approach. So grease pencil is a format thats not going to work. As @blurymind said. There should be a way to somehow bake grease pencil into a spritesheet.

@blurymind @ndee85 Yes this makes sense of course. Not sure if baking grease pencil into a spritesheet is really worth the afford. Thanks
