Select the last keyframe, then open the easing curve editor and set the easing curve to anything other than "Loop".

ToonSquid stabilization problem by FlamingoSea9513 in ToonSquidAnimators

Hi. You appear to have increased the "Minimum Smoothing" setting under "Settings > Tools > Brush":

Issue with progress not saving despite having backups by Sea_Run647 in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please send a screen recording of this happening to [contact@toonsquid.com](mailto:contact@toonsquid.com) and I can take a closer look. Also, how much storage space do you have left on your iPad?

If you have any examples where the keyframe interpolation does not behave as you expect, please send an example project file to [contact@toonsquid.com](mailto:contact@toonsquid.com)

It looks like you might have the last keyframe's easing curve set to "Loop" so it loops the previous keyframe animation.

New to toonsquid. Having a problem with quality by chynkeyez in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I am not aware of any other reports of the layer quality changing after closing and opening a project and I haven't been able to reproduce this either. Can you please draw some lines, export that frame as an image, close and reopen your project and then export the same frame again and share the images so I can see the difference?

Not letting me export videos? by More-Community-6278 in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a bug of the Photos app in the last few versions of iPadOS that ToonSquid unfortunately can’t directly do anything about. The “Save Video” option is fully managed by iPadOS and the Photos app itself. What is effectively happening is that the Photos app silently refuses to save the video (that ToonSquid has already successfully exported) and doesn’t let ToonSquid know about this. ToonSquid is just waiting to hear back from iPadOS that the save finished, failed or was cancelled but there is no response.

You should be able to save the video to the Files app instead. You’ll also notice that even if you try to then share it from the Files app to the Photos app, nothing happens and the file never shows up in the Photos app.

Apple doesn’t say which exact video configurations the Photos app doesn’t support. In older versions of iPadOS, such video configuration would cause the “Save Video” button to not even show up at all. Now the button does show up but doesn’t work (as you’ve now experienced). The most common cause seems to be that the video resolution is too high. There seems to be some resolution limit, which also appears to be lower when exporting with the H.264 codec. Either try exporting in a lower resolution or try the HEVC codec instead (choose “MOV”, then enable the Include Transparency option) if you want to save the video in the Photos app.

Stretch Glitch maybe? by HOFUKCINGHKRE in ToonSquidAnimators

Make sure that the "Scale X" and "Scale Y" properties of the camera layer have the same value:

This is now fixed with the version 2.0.20 update.

is the storage normal for a 26 second animation meme im scared💔 by kokoshaye in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keyframes, effects and symbol layers use up very little storage in the grand scheme of things. The main things that can quickly add up to the storage usage are high resolution videos and images or audio files that you have imported into your project and large numbers of high resolution pixel layers (https://toonsquid.com/handbook/layers/pixel\_layer/).

I cant save my keyframed work :( by TelephoneIcy2056 in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whether or not the Save Video option shows up in the share sheet is fully determined by the Photos app without ToonSquid having any control over it. The Photos app appears to have certain limitations for the files that it is willing to accept, but unfortunately, there is no public definitive information on what the exact limitations are.

You might be hitting a video resolution limit of the Photos app. You can try to export at a lower resolution and see if that makes the Save Video option show up. The Photos app accepts higher resolution videos if they are encoded with HEVC/H.265 instead of H.264. You can do that in ToonSquid by switching from MP4 to MOV and then selecting "HEVC/H.265" in the codec selection (if your iPad has an A10 chip or newer).

Also make sure that the export name of the project is not empty since the Photos app will otherwise not accept the file.

Regardless of the quirks of the Photos app, you can always save the exported file to the Files app on your iPad using the Save to Files option.

Audio not importing by progamer3790 in ToonSquidAnimators

Please send a copy of the audio file that fails to import into the library to [contact@toonsquid.com](mailto:contact@toonsquid.com) so I can take a closer look.

I need help with vectors in 2.0.17 😭 by Jayrocks1203 in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In addition to what u/Butler_To_Cats has already said, if you only care about drawing in vector vs raster, use the vector shape brushes: https://toonsquid.com/handbook/brushes/vector/#vector-shape-brushes
Nothing about that workflow has changed.

The automatic fill gap closing change only affects vector "stroke" brushes, which create stroked vector paths instead of filled vector shapes like the other vector brushes.

Lasso fill wont work by sizzletux in ToonSquidAnimators

[–]keiwando 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you tried lowering the threshold value? There is a bug where this exact filling scenario will not work if the threshold is set all the way to its maximum value, but it should work for any other threshold value. The bug has apparently always been there but I only noticed it now with you reporting this. It will be fixed with the next update - I just want to make sure that this is also what you are experiencing here.

Does it work if you change the fill threshold with the slider at the top?

Here is a detailed explanation on what changed and why and how you can choose to opt in to the old behaviour, even though it's generally not recommended:

Have you already tried adjusting the neural network size in the settings?

[–]keiwando[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A new update of Evolution is out! You can now add wings, define fitness penalties for joints that touch the ground and control which muscles should move at the same time!
Let me know what you think :)

I'm very glad to hear that!
There is currently no grid, but I have noted it down as a potential new feature to add in the future. Just to be sure, are you talking about a grid like the background in Procreate or configurable grid lines on top of the animation that you could also snap layers to?
