v0.3.0 - Tools!


Meowdy! This update was focused on adding a tool system and populating it with some basic tools to make common tasks easier. More tools will be add in future updates!

Changes

  • Added 2 menu bars which are opened with the B button (timeline has been moved, see below).
    • The top utility bar contains icons that perform an action, toggle as setting, or open another UI. It currently contains the following icons:
      • Open timeline. This is the UI that was previously mapped to the B button
      • Insert frame. This is a faster alternative to having to open the timeline in order to insert a frame.
      • Toggle onion skinning on/off.
      • Trigger auto playback. Hides onion skin/ui and auto plays/loops your animation. Currently locked to 30FPS, frame time customization coming in a future update.
      • Clear frame. Quickly erase an entire frame.
    • The bottom tool bar works as a mode toggle for your drawing tool. Selecting a tool will replace the active tool (the left most icon). It contains the following icons:
      • Pencil tool. This is the previous default drawing mode.
      • Move frame. Move all the pixel in a frame. A rectangle select is coming in a future update.
      • Fill tool. Flood fill!
  • Added active tool icon to lower-left hand corner.
  • Added frame numbers next to frames on timeline.
  • Updated crank sfx to be more cranky.
  • Your current pix is now saved on app sleep, lock, and terminate.
  • Tweaked the onion skin visuals.

Also I wanted to thank those of you who have already purchased Pocket Pix! Your support means a lot to me.
