Correct answer Pete.Green

Hi Jakhir,

Onion skin can be found in the Timeline Panel's flyout menu -- Create timeline animations in Adobe Photoshop

Let us know if you have further questions.

Where is the onion skin option??? Can YOU find it? Send me a picture of where it is in the current version please.

Mac 10.15.6

Ps v.21.2.3

Isn't this the fly out menu? It's not in the button bar. WHERE IS IT???

I have the same issue as danv47030643

He is right. No onion skin as of 22.4.0.

Tween is useless for onion skin purposes.

Turns out that you can change your timeline in between a "Video Timeline" and "Frame Animation"... Onion Skin will only show up on the flyout menu for the "Video Timeline". This is really weird. Of course we want to use this while doing frame animation. Now to use it I have to go and set up the timeline and duration of each frame.
