You may be missing the ability to continuously output the edits once you have set up the Export Persona. If your animation software can keep track of new/changed files that it imported it may be easier to do that.

Medical Officer Bones Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Interestingly enough I recall Fireworks to have this exact feature. It was a bit clunky to work with, but still quite useful for quick previews of simple animations. I believe ImageReady also had this option. The only other software that I am aware of with this functionality is PhotoLine: I use this when importing existing GIF animations. By the way, I read that the latest PhotoLine beta offers support for animated PNG and WebP files... Affinity? Are you hearing this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fde101 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 I will second the recommendation to take a look at SynFig Studio for this sort of thing. Hype is out there too for those on the Mac. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
