The following steps will show you how to apply strokes to your Colour Art layers on multiple frames.
Option 1: Use the Apply to All Frames button
This option will allow you to apply Create Colour Art from Line Art to all frames in the layer:
- In the Timeline, Node or Xsheet view, select the layer you want to create the colour art on.
- In the Tools toolbar, click on the Select
tool.
- In the Tool Properties view, select the Apply to All Frames
button. This will select all frames on the active drawing layer.
- In the Tool Properties view, or the Camera View toolbar, select the Create Colour Art from Line Art
button.
- All of the frames on the layer will now have strokes on their colour art layers.
NOTE: The Create Colour Art from Line Art feature creates strokes on the Colour Art layer. If you don’t see the strokes, activate them by going to View > Show > Show Strokes, or by using the keyboard shortcut K. |
Option 2: Use the Apply to Onion Skin Range button
If you want to affect only a selection of frames, use this option:
- In the Timeline, Node or Xsheet view, select the layer you want to create the colour art on.
- In the Tools toolbar, click on the Onion Skin
tool.
- Use the range of the onion skin to select the frames by doing one of the following:
-
If you’re using the By Frames onion skin mode, use the handlebars In the Timeline view to ‘select’ a section of frames.
-
If you’re using the By Drawings onion skin mode, use the Add and Remove Previous/Next Drawings to select the range.
- If you would like to change your onion skin mode, please see How do I change my Onion Skin mode?
-
- In the Tools toolbar, click on the Select
tool.
- In the Tool Properties view, select the Apply to Onion Skin Range
button. This will select all frames in the onion skin range.
- In the Tool Properties view, or the Camera View toolbar, select the Create Colour Art from Line Art
button.
- All frames in the onion skin range will now have strokes on their colour art layers.
If you would like to configure how the Create Colour Art from Line Art feature behaves, see the Creating Colour Art from Line Art documentation.
TIP: It’s a good idea to deactivate the Apply to All Frames or Apply to Onion Skin Range buttons when you are done, as failing to do so can result in the unwanted editing of multiple frames. Harmony will put a red warning at the bottom of the Camera view to remind you when these are activated. |
