Hi there,
I’m looking at options for making some short animations to go in videos on a youtube channel I am developing, wick looks very promising as I used flash 8 back in the day and have been searching for something similar for using on linux.
I have a couple of questions that will help me decide if wick is going to work with my project:
-
which version should I use? there seem to be 2, the main version at http://wickeditor.com/wick-editor/ and a newer version at https://alpha.wickeditor.com/
-
On the newer version I can’t seem to add a layer to the timeline - am I missing something or is this feature not enabled yet [EDIT: found it, just click in the blank space below the current layer…]? Also right clicking doesn’t seem to work at all in the newer version - should it?
-
I’ll need to use my animations in a video editor (kdenlive) so I need to be able to export an image sequence - is this possible? ( I see there is a method involving taking screen shots - I suppose this MIGHT work but it might be tricky to get my layers to match up - which will be important for the (simple) keyframe animations I will be including…)
Thanks for any help anyone can offer, wick looks very promising, I’ve been wanting a flash replacement on linux for years…
