Timeline & animation improvements
Timeline & animation improvements
Animations of the same type are grouped on the same line; overlapping ones stack into separate rows.
Multi-select animations: Shift + click, or drag over multiple animations.
Zoom in/out: Alt/Option + scroll while hovering over the timeline.
Horizontal scroll: Shift + scroll.
Drag the handles on each side of the bottom scrollbar to adjust zoom level.
Animation start, duration, end, and repeat markers all snap to 0.1s intervals.
Copying and pasting an animation pastes it at the current playhead position (only when playhead > 0).
π‘ Quick tip: scaling text
When scaling a text layer, the font size won't adjust automatically. If you need the text to scale visually, use a Bounding box with a larger font size instead.

The new Layer menu is now available, too. It's an alternative in Studio and the default in the Creative Editor. It's ready to use - explore how it fits your workflow.
Prefer the old timeline view? Switch back anytime under User Settings (top right corner).
β οΈ Important things to be aware of
β οΈ Important things to be aware of
Layer position is now relative to the format - Layer x/y coordinates are no longer relative to the group they sit inside - they're now relative to the canvas format. This also affects group sizing: rotated child layers are now factored in, so groups may appear larger than before if their contents are rotated.
