New in Pencil2D 0.5 Beta (Oct 9, 2013)

  • Support for some command-line options. Now it's possible to specify file to open: $ Pencil file.pcl Export to image sequence using command-line: $ Pencil file.pcl --export-sequence file.png
  • Load dialog: Allow to choose "Any file" filter - that allows to load files without extension (old Pencil files).
  • Fix transparency issue when exporting to png sequence
  • Other minor fixes
  • Export movie exports audio and video. Audio layers are mixed. To select video format use an 'appropriate' filename extension ( ex: .avi, .mov, .mpg, .mp4 ... ), movie framerate is selectable ( but output codecs don't support all framerates, a safe and usual choice should be 24, 25 or 30 fps )
  • Minor fixes in audio layers ( corrupted audio passed end of 'audio frame' ).
  • Improved undo/redo functionality
  • Fixed saving animation ( removed 'optimization', now saving is slower but safer )
  • Added fps parameter in saved animations
  • 3 'layers' of onion skinning ( configurable trough edit->preferences->tools, to remove a layer set its opacity to 0 )
  • Added import movie ( frames are imported at the current fps, there is no check to limit the imported frames )
