Grease Pencil Animator Desk is a set of panels and buttons, designed for better workflow with drawn animation. Making it I focused on working with tablets – with minimal use of keys.
Features of version 1.6.0:
Additional navigation and layout buttons on 3dView:
More traditonal Onion Skin switcher:
“Draw with Hints” display mode – system of hints helping to keep order and direction of drawn strokes – and prepare better keyframes for automatic inbetweens
Reference system – panel for transforming and managing reference drawings without leaving Drawing Mode (useful for Shift’n’Trace)
Easy Onion Skin color setup with 4 presets for fast switching:
Extended options for managing frames:
Fast switching between most used tools, without manual changing interaction modes:
Option to render only Grease Pencil frames to the output folder (instead of animated sequence for whole timeline)
Buttons for setting animation range and FPS – placed on Timeline window Header
