some questions regard koolmoves

[aka_kenny06]

hi, ive been using koolmove for nearly two years and i was just wondering if there are any mods/addons for it (like brushes)

on koolmoves its very hard to cover up any unwanted lines, so like in flashmx i think there should be a rubber tool so you can rub out cirtain parts of a shape and line, also a select seperate line, so you have a shape with lots of corners and theres a line that you dont want, you click on it and it only selects that line, then if you double click it selects the whole shape.

Also i have been experiancing some problems with koolmoves, the program seems to crash all the time, and when you add images to the file, it makes the program very slow.

thanks

I haven't experienced the crashing problem, as to editing your shapes remember when drawing in KM you are drawing VECTOR shapes and as such you can edit the lines and points which makes removing parts pretty easy.

so how do you do this? it would really really help me with my animations

With regard to the crashing problem, you may be short on graphic card memory or you may be running other large applications at the same time.

An eraser tool for vector shapes is very difficult to implement.

Good idea though.. different brush strokes would be awesome!!! I use koolmoves to draw pics alot aswell as animation, and currently (so the pic isn't too neat) I draw extra lines over the exsisting single lines so it appears I've drawn it with a pencil.. I love koolmoves

You can only add bones to shapes that are NOT symbols. So first make sure you have draw as symbols set to off. THen you should see "has bones" in the property panel

You have to select Cartooning mode (upper right)
