Hello folks, (this is my first post in this community )
About a year ago I made an addon that added groups features to the -freaking awesome- Grease Pencil (and more functionalities! (That why the “++” (to be honest, is also kinda my playground for adding every feature I personally miss in Grease Pencil))).
I’ve been receiving very positive feedback recently, and despite in terms of “promoting it”, I really never cared about it (and is a labour I don’t like tbh ), I personally think that it deserves some love and I’m pretty proud about it.
Here is a little “trailer” showing a bit of it:
I took some inspiration in other graphic softwares like -my beloved- Krita (the inherited alpha system is inspired Krita):
I implemented other functionalities that are crucial IMHO, like an integrated color picker to directly sample colours under the brush with just a key:
Also implemented things like solo modes both for visibility and lock state
(I always say that the solo lock EXTREMELY USEFUL both when sculpting and when weight painting strokes. Makes rigging 2D characters so much easier, IMHO).
I’ve put a special effort for making it super easy to use (like making easy to move layers/groups, to add new elements, etc).
I’m constantly updating it, since at the end, I’m using it daily, and everytime I think “hey, would be cool if X”, I implement that X".
Tbh I personally won’t be able to use Grease Pencil anymore without it, it boosts my workflow a lot.
I decided to open this thread because I think it would be a nice place where the community could give some feedback. I’m always open to listen to other’s ideas. Already implemented a few things users told me.
The truth is, if its good, doable and will help you with your workflow, I will probably do it .
