Intro

Onion skinning is a technique, accessible in the Dragonframe software, that enables animators to simultaneously see several of their most recent frames in Live View. Onion skinning is essential in accurately fluid animation.

Getting Ready

  • Use the pegbar to secure your artwork when utilizing the main animation stand.
  • Open up Dragonframe (for questions with opening Dragonframe and details, see Basic Animation 2D).
  • Use Auto-Focus to focus the area where you placed your drawing or objects. (for questions on using Auto-Focus and details, see Focusing-Dragonframe).
  • Click on X-Sheet in the upper right hand corner of Dragonframe (for questions about X-Sheet, see X-Sheet Dragonframe).
  • Take several frames of your artwork and/or objects.

Settings

  • When opening Dragonframe, you will find a tool called the Onion skin Opacity Slider which is located underneath the Live-View (see Fig. 1.0 & Fig. 1.1).
