1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
8 drawings anim, = 8 frames, Marks on drawings 1 and 6,
go to frame 6 (which is the 2nd Mark) and hit your button , it works great!
you should get this :
M_________M____
1 2 3 4 5 6 6 7 8
now go to frame 1 (the 1rst Mark), hit your button, you will get that :
M_________M______
1 1 2 3 4 5 6 6 7 8
the 2nd Mark don't stay sticked on 6 ...
so it will work properly only if you advance (forward) continuously, without going backward.
Is this what happened?
(P.S. use "code /code" tags for ASCII character drawings...)
It works!!! Thank you.
I opened your script as a text file and I understand what you did.
In order to complete the Animator Panel I have changed the parametres of the buttons of:
"Remove Current Image":
0 Key:Project:Delete Image
1 None
"Duplicate Image Left":
0 Key:Project:Duplicate Single Image
1 None
"Add ImageBefore":
0 Key:Project:Insert Single Image
1 None
I applaud you for taking the initiative to learn a little about scripting and making macros! I could have just made a custom panel for you to import -- but then it wouldn't have helped you in making your own tools and script!
If you ever need help with this sort of thing, or are interested in GRG scripting, just ask! Also -- you may want to ask the TVP staff for a copy of the SDK... GRG scripting allows you to do many things that aren't possible with keyboard and CP panel button macros alone... and then there's plugins, but that's another whole ball of wax!
Thank you, ill ask my questions when they will appear.
Concerning the custom panel.
Why don't you create it anyway? It could be usefull for other users.
And I've been making a little bit of publicity for the software at my friends last time. The panel could be usefull to convince them. And do the scripts also work on a Mac?

Ha ha ha because it's just ONE command -- I'd wind up having to make a custom panel for just one button -- when we already have a perfectly usable Animator Panel that we can add to -- As much as I love CP buttons, I don't like making too many of them because it starts to get rather cluttered...

I believe that GRG scripts (which don't require any compiling) should work just fine, cross-platform...
This way of marking keyframes by using bookmarks works really fine. But, just if you have one layer. As, with this method we change the project parametres, every timing modification affects all the layers. That's not really practic when animating on several layers. So it would be great to have a kind of bookmarks for each layer which behave like the bookmarks influenced by the scripts. Does it seem to be usefull for you?
What do you think about that? What's the opinion of the development team?

I think it's already in the wish list somewhere else.
meanwhile, we have a workaround to preserve/protect other Layers,
temporarily "Lock" them (le petit cadenas) et voilà.

each layer having its own attached bookmark system?
hmmm... unfortunately, I haven't access to the planned "roadmap" of this product-family for the coming years,
so I can't answer to this question, but in my opinion, I doubt for the next version,
I guess it could come with the next/next version,
I mean the BIG one, with a new Layer Engine.
wait and see...
you're right, of course I've (mis)taken the layer/duplicate frame command
