Onion Skin

Now I understand what you mean, thanks for the video Terje !
Indeed an echo effect does the trick. If you are only doing animation then a special plugin dedicated to that could do the trick instead of a new feature from Adobe

Excellent @7495556 🙂 Not perfect, but very usefull. Thanks !

Echo effect on an adjustment layer? It's not elegant, but it would get you a similar effect. Set it as a guide layer so it doesn't render in the output, lock it so you don't accidentally select it.

Here's a link to the old Flash onion skin feature.

Onion skin is excellent to see previous and next frame to adjust the current accordingly. Must have for any serious animation software.

There are multiple and duplicate post request for this feature. Make sure to up-vote everyone or perhaps the admin could join them into one-halleluja-request that will stick.

Hi,
why is it a duplicate? I havn't dound any similar.
Have you a link to a similar suggestion?

Sorry I flagged that idea. I just wanted to report it as duplicate

Would you have a screenshot to illustrate your feature ? I don't see it

A Onion Layer function like in Flash would be great in AFX.
Its for seeing multiple layers in the timeline at teh same time also if they are invisible. Its for a better animation workflow if you need to see invisible layers.
