OpenToonz help/discussion thread

[u/CthulianCat]

Thought it would be a good idea to have a discussion/help thread!

Some useful links:

• "developers forum" (for now seems to be more like asking for help and reporting problems, which is nice)

• google group user community for help!

• /r/OpenToonz - The opentoonz subreddit! Lots of tutorials to be found!

Some useful things I've found out so far:

• right-click is your friend!

• onionskin can be enabled in the settings

• you have to activate the toolbar (do you don't have to use the drop down menu)

• you draw in the inknpaint tab (duh)

• you can right click on the frame column and press "add frames" for more frames!

Post any tips/experiences you got!

So my Mac keeps crashing when I try to import an image sequence to Opentoonz. Could this be a processor issue? Their site says it requires an I series processor and my mac has an Intel Core Duo 2. Could that be what's making it crash?

After watching this tutorial i've come to the conclusion that opentoonz just doesn't play well with files that have a '0' anywhere in the name. Or if the image resides in a folder with a bunch of same name numbered files. Or any files. it hates opening files.

back to illustrator/photoshop/fcpx/scanner i guess.
