I got the clipboard stuff started. its buggy now, and wont really work well.

I added support for path tweening (the underlying component of polygons as well).

I fixed the way you moved paths, it was really simple, I changed

var xinc = left-xshe;
var yinc = top-yshe;

to

var xinc = left-box.x;
var yinc = top-box.y;

So paths can be moved correctly now. I also changed the default grid size to 5px rather than 15px

I got some keyboard shortcuts implemented. Most of them are just copied off Adobe’s book, so it shouldn’t be too hard to learn.

Here is the list (you can grab it off the Help->Keyboard Shortcuts and you can see i’m bolding the button labels like in KDE’s Tip of The Day boxes)

F5 Insert Frame
F6 To Keyframe
F7 Empty Frame
Enter Preview/Play
Page Up Go to Previous Frame
Page Down Go to Next frame
Ctrl+C Copy
Ctrl+X Cut
Ctrl+V Paste
Ctrl+Z Undo
Ctrl+Shift+Z Redo

I organized some buttons from the tool menu into a new “Recovery” submenu. It is marked by a shield for it’s icon. From it, you can select Reload Canvas, which saves onlypaths, Reload Application, which is what you do when your truly desparate and the app is rendered useless (such as if you type in Ax=null; into the script executor). Now there’s a new button, Reload Animation. It tries to save the state of the animation and reloads it, in the process, restarting the timeline and canvas.

Okay, now you can do move the rotated stuff too!

As a byproduct of fixing rotation tweening, animations employing rotation may appear differently from before.

Okay, I finally looked into how the rotation system works, and I’ve prettymuch gotten it to work. Sadly, you can’t move the object you’re tweening.

Now it works, and it detects rotation tweens… as….. tweens.

Okay, you won’t believe how productive linux is. it’s magickal. The multi-layer issues are prettymuch gone. I just forgot to reset some values inside the loading thing part.

I’m just getting used to linux. Its not too different, and compiz-fusion is really distracting (but awesome!) I feel a bit more productive, as things are a lot faster, and much of the stuff is more stable.

Sadly, I really miss TortoiseSVN (i’m probably gonna switch to KDE eventually, but its a freaking huge download).

I just tested out my Compiler, and woah, the speeds are freaking amazing. On Windows+XAMPP, i actually have to wait ~5 seconds after I hit the “Compile” button for everything to work. here on linux, its instantaneous!

I’m working on the bugs that kermeros reported now. but I just wanted to post that I actually got ubuntu working.
