Thank you @XtraTrstrL, I was looking for the shortcuts list :)

I have one question; is it possible to toggle on/off for onion skinning view? Or once I right click on the time line and see the green/red colors, how can I get out of that mode? (currently I quit the program and go back in, is there an easier way? Thanks!)

Thank you very much @lucid! (I started trying that before posting, but for some reason I didn't think it was a precise way enough, especially because I didn't use enough precision either!) But following your way solves it, thanks again! Also, I read you had an arm injury, so I wish you a fast and good recovery!

Adding a suggestion.

Being able to move the an object Z-Order across the entire animation. Made some art changes and now find myself needing to do entire animation z-orders on each frame :(

Actually, just the straight forward option to have any changes for bones, order, image, centre point be applied to the entire animation would be excellent. I could only think that angle, position, opacity and such changes not have full animation changes.

Yes on this, please. I'm going through the same struggle

Look in the menu and you will find "edit/copy z-order to all frames"

cheers,

Now that Spriter is released as 1.0 (GREAT WORK!!) is there a cheat sheet anywhere that has all of the current keyboard shortcuts in one big list? The first thing I always do when I'm acquainting myself to software is print a list of all the keybindings to hang up by my desk for quick reference.

I'm no stranger to compiling the list myself, but wanted to see if there was already something made up somewhere that is current to the 1.0 features and any changes to the shortcuts that may have occurred between the last time this thread was updated up until now before I took the time to put it together on my own.

Looked around in the software's help appendices but couldn't find anything after a quick skim/search of the index.

Thanks and congratulations on seeing the development through to the robust tool that you've crafted so lovingly!

Would be great to have shorcut keys for going one "snapping frame" forward or backwards instead of just moving only to ones with keyframes on them like you can using the "1" and "2" shortcuts.

Related to that it would be great if those "Go to previous/next keyframe" keys were mapped to non number keys. The current setup makes it really difficult to quickly tweak numbers in the object properties text boxes. I keep typing 1's and 2's into them instead of moving to the next frame I need to tweak.

 

Thanks!
