FlipBook Makes Painting Faster & Easier
DigiCel FlipBook has several unique features that help you
paint faster and easier than any other animation app.
Quickly Fill Connected Areas
FlipBook lets you drag the bucket (fill tool) like a brush and it fills every area that it enters. So if you have several connected areas you don’t to click in each one. All you need to do is drag the bucket like a brush and FlipBook will fill them all in one fell swoop. Think how much time that could save if you’re painting a pearl necklace or a brick wall.
Quickly Fill Unconnected Areas
But sometimes you have lots of areas to paint that aren’t connected. In FlipBook you don’t have to paint each one separately. FlipBook’s AutoFill feature can paint all of the enclosed areas whether they’re connected or not with just 3 clicks. The AutoFill Action floods the entire frame with paint and then erases all the paint that is not enclosed with in the lines. So you just click on Action, pick which corner of the frame you want to erase from and then click on “Do It”. Imagine painting a frame that has 100 raindrops. It would be pretty tedious to have to click on every raindrop one at a time. But FlipBook will paint the entire frame in just 3 clicks.
Quickly Fill The Entire Layer
So to carry the same example forward, image that frame that has 100 raindrops is just one of 100 frames. FlipBook can handle that too. Just set the frame where you want to start and the frame where you want to stop and FlipBook will paint them all with the same 3 clicks. No you’ve painted 10,000 raindrops with just 3 clicks. How much time do you think that will save you?
Quickly and Easily Erase Paint
FlipBook even makes erasing paint faster and easier. Most apps make you use an eraser brush to erase paint too. So you have to drag the brush over all the paint in the area paying particular attention to the edges so you don’t erase any part of the line. Instead of having to deal with that FlipBook lets you erase paint the same way you fill paint. Just select the bucket AND the eraser and now the bucket erases just like it filled. FlipBook can do that because it stores the lines and the paint in separate layers. So you never have to worry about messing up your lines when you have to erase paint.
