Like I said, the drawing looks good, then I scan it and trace it with GTS, and suddenly, if I don't turn up the thickness, the lines have huge gaps, but when I turn the thickness up, I end up with holes/blank pixels inside the lines. It seems like I have trouble making smooth pencil lines, what do I have to do to make it better? I use regular printer paper and not paper specially made for animation. Is that the problem?

Trying to ease in/out an animations keyframes and the arrows i love using to edit arent appearing. Tried to use the function editor but its just really confusing for me which is why i like using the arrows more. Anyone know how to bring em back or why they arent showing anymore?

I made a porksoda animation with my ocs and when i render it to mp4 it keeps on coming out blank, the audio is there but not the animation. Anyone able to help?

Hello to anybody reading this, so a while ago I was trying to figure out on how to merge columns, since I'm new to OpenToonz and a while ago i got to merge two other columns, but when I tried to draw on the merged column, opentoonz would give me an error saying "The current level is not editable."

I wanted to add some sound, but it turned out like this (in the picture above). Can you tell me what to do? (The dark green part is the sound.)

I have used OpenToonz sporadically for a number of years, but I am not that good at using it. I have not worked in the 2D animation industry, so some terminology escapes me. For the most part I get what I want done, but one area I have a lot of trouble with is manipulating frames, for instance moving frames, reordering etc. I have tried tips online to use the XSheet but I still am unable to do simple things. I am used to Flash animation tools. Any thing I have missed that would make me better at moving frames?

new to animation

Made it in 3 days idk. Could use a little feed back to know what i did wrong but idk its decent progress. I lost a couple brain cells in the process.

i have my onion skin settings set as red for previous frame and green for future frames in opentoonz and the black brush appears red but when i try using the blue brush the color bassically just completely fades when usingg onion skin, it still appears red but a LOT more faint making it hard to see.

So i tried making a simple ball animation on opentoonz, but when i try to render it, it all just comes out blank, like my frames don't exist. I tried downloading software to instantly render the animation into an mp4, but again, it just comes out blank.
How can i fix this issue? Is there an error in my animation or is it cause my pc sucks?

istfg this app is going to give me a headache 😐

OpenToonz crashed and corrupted my .tnz with the error "bad file format" and "expected step end tag" with []

The backups give me the same exact issue when I remove the .back extension.

I opened another alternative save of the file that I had (as a self made backup), and all the frames and drawings were jumbled, some missing, others extending past the position I had set them in before.

Please tell me if this can this be restored, I spent too long working on it to lose it now.

this is sort of what im reffering to (the animator for this sakuga is saucelot) and ive seen basically every animation sakuga has this same exact brush style and i was wondering how can i achieve it

Does anyone know how to fix it? I'd be so infinitely grateful if someone does 😭

Not sure what I did wrong, but the canvas has a limit despite me setting a higher resolution when I opened a new scene. If someone can explain and help that would be great lol

Hi, just start looking into opentoonz, I trying to resize to the canvas, I have no idea how to do it, if anyone can help ;D

Thanks

everytime i try to open it opentoonz just goes "The Scene FILENAMEHERE belongs to project sandbox" and when i click iport scene or change project all files go blank and their names go red. is my file corrupt??

I was animating, opentoonz crashed inbetween and booted back up, and ive lost soo much of my frames that I have done, happened the day before yesterday, redone all my progress and crashed again and lost my progress again. Ive given up on my animation because of this. Does anyone know why this happened ?

Can we export a particular level in an animation such as a layer containing an animation and I wanna reuse the animation in another scene without importing the whole scene as a subxsheet only the particular animation on the level

I don't know if this only happens to me because I didn't see anyone talking about this issue, but why is this happening
I need to undo the selected layer, but why is it undoing the non-selected layer

Hello! trying to render and export one of my animatics -- there are multiple characters in the scene, so I've added color filters to each character's layer, and lowered the opacity of background characters' layers. However, when I preview/fast-render the animatic, opentoonz seems to ignore my settings and 1) reset all color filters to black, and 2) reset every layer's opacity to 100%, which doesn't give the effect I want. Is there a way to render it while preserving my opacity and color filter settings?

** my render turns this:

to this:

basically exactly as the title states. import a wav, nothing. try again, it says the file already exists. press any of the options and nothing happens. idk. reddit isn't letting me upload screenshots today but that's basically it. i have the latest stable version and so far it's been full of irritating bugs so i'm sure i'm not the only one
