Hello, I don't think that this will give you the answer, but I feel that it is almost a must see if you are doing animations with Photoshop: http://vimeo.com/80851591
Also useful is this panel: http://vimeo.com/82506579
Thanks Pierre-Etienne!
Hey man, I was blown away by that piece of animation you made for CN that featured all the characters from their shows! We all enjoyed it at our studio in Vancouver. And now to find out you did it in Photoshop is a double mind job. Good on ya, bud!
This was a great demo of Photoshop animation, I learned alot. The AnimDessin2 panel is also amazing. I will reccomend it to animator folks. I am actually in the storyboarding side of the animation industry so we are focussing on using Photoshop's Animation Frames rather than its Animation Timeline. Simplifies it well for us. But much of this info is useful background, so thanks very much dude. -good luck with all your amazing work, P-E!
I have actually just found a solution to my specific problem with making new layers that inadvertently affect all frames. There is a specific function in the "Timeline" panel menu. "New Layers Visible in All Frames" -derp, I snoozed on that one. -ha. Just needs to be unchecked. It doesnt touch the Propagate Frame 1 box, but still solves my problem. Hopefully it solves it for AlstonA.
Thanks Adobe for fixing it before it was broke. ha
