**********************************************************************
|
||
\split
|
||
\image nodither.pcx
|
||
This is the old drawing method for RGB images. Without dithering.
|
||
\next
|
||
\image dither.pcx
|
||
Now, you can configure to use this new ordered dithering method.
|
||
\done
|
||
|
||
See "Tool/Options" menu or press <Ctrl+Shift+O>.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
Use the <1>, <2>, <3>, <4>, <5> and <6> keys to set the zoom in the
|
||
current editor's viewport.
|
||
|
||
\image zoom.pcx
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
You can get a color from the sprite using the <9> or <0> keys to
|
||
set the left or right color respectively.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
\image sprprop.pcx
|
||
|
||
You can modify the quantity of sprite's animation frames using the
|
||
"Sprite/Properties" menu or pressing <Ctrl+P>.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
Move through the frames with the arrows keys
|
||
|
||
\split
|
||
Left = go to previous frame
|
||
|
||
Down = go to first frame
|
||
\next
|
||
Right = go to next frame
|
||
|
||
Up = go to last frame
|
||
\done
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
You can add new animation frames pressing <Ctrl+Shift+N> or using
|
||
"Frame/New" menu.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
Do you want edit layers, frames and cels? Use the film editor:
|
||
|
||
\image filmedit.pcx
|
||
|
||
Go to "Tools/Film Editor" menu or press TAB when you are
|
||
editing a sprite.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
You can use the onionskin feature to edit animations (press <C> key to
|
||
see the "Tools Setup" window):
|
||
|
||
\image onion.pcx
|
||
|
||
Remember that only the current layer is used as onionskin, also, it's
|
||
useful only when this layer has the mask color as background.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
When you apply some effect (like Convolution Matrix, or Color Curves),
|
||
you can choose the target channels:
|
||
\split
|
||
\image tar_rgb.pcx
|
||
* R: Red channel
|
||
* G: Green channel
|
||
* B: Blue channel
|
||
* A: Alpha channel
|
||
\next
|
||
\image tar_gray.pcx
|
||
* K: Black channel
|
||
* A: Alpha channel
|
||
\next
|
||
\image tar_indx.pcx
|
||
* R: Red channel
|
||
* G: Green channel
|
||
* B: Blue channel
|
||
* Index: Use directly the index
|
||
\done
|
||
|
||
Also you will be able to specify to what images apply the effect:
|
||
|
||
\split
|
||
\image tar_1.pcx
|
||
Current frame in current layer
|
||
\next
|
||
\image tar_2.pcx
|
||
All frames of current layer
|
||
\next
|
||
\image tar_3.pcx
|
||
Current frames of all layers
|
||
\next
|
||
\image tar_4.pcx
|
||
All frames in all layers
|
||
\done
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
\image colcurv.pcx
|
||
|
||
In the "Color Curve" window, you can use the <Ins> and <Del> keys to
|
||
insert or remove vertices respectively. Also, if you press in a
|
||
vertex with the right mouse button, the "Point Properties" window (to
|
||
change the coordinates manually) will be appears.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
\image minipal.pcx
|
||
|
||
Select a color in the color-bar using the <Ctrl> key will show you
|
||
this mini-palette.
|
||
**********************************************************************
|
||
\image lua.pcx
|
||
|
||
Do you want to write Lua scripts to generate images or create
|
||
repetitive tasks? You can find the documentation in
|
||
"docs/scripts/README.txt". Also you can look for "data/scripts/gens/"
|
||
directory for some examples.
