Work with drawers

The use of the Drawers is simple ... just drag and drop a panel inside a Drawer. Yes, that's all! A panel is added to a Drawer when it is dropped on it.

To drag a panel, click and drag the title bar of the panel.

To drag a panel, click and drag the title bar of the panel.

If there are too many panels to be seen inside a Drawer, a slider appears on the right or left side of the Drawer.



If you want to remove a panel from a Drawer, just drag and drop it outside. Floating panels can be placed anywhere in the program window.

Their position can also be locked when removed from a drawer by clicking on the dot located next to the panel’s title. When a panel is locked, the aforementioned dot will turn into a lock:



You can also see that when you add a panel to a Drawer, all the other panels inside it move automatically to make room for the dropped panel. Similarly, if a panel is removed from a Drawer, the remaining panels will fill the space

And when the Drawers are hidden, only a thin bar is still visible near the TVPaint Animation window borders. To show the Drawers again, move the cursor over this bar, and it will reappear.
