Overview

Before using Aninix Plugin, it is important to become familiar with the interface and how to use it. To do this, it is helpful to take some time to review the features and controls of the tool.

1. Frame Panel:

On the left side, you can view the frames and layers with their respective names. You can select a layer and add keyframes to animate it.

2. Timeline Panel:

On the left side, you can view the frames and layers with their respective names. You can select a layer and add keyframes to animate it.

3. Keyframes

The Keyframe Editor allows you to create complex animations and effects by adding, deleting, and adjusting keyframes for layers. You can adjust timing, interpolation, and other properties for smooth and sophisticated animations.

4. Anchor Point

The anchor point is the point from which all transformations are manipulated. It is the point around which a layer will scale and rotate. Though it may seem redundant to have both an anchor point and a position transform property, these parameters serve different purposes.

  • Change Anchor Point Position

Just select the layer and in the right side, you can easily change the position of the Anchor Point.

  • How Anchor Point Work

The Anchor Point is the point of the layer that is used as the reference point when transforming or moving the layer. When you move or rotate the layer, it will move or rotate relative to the Anchor Point. By default, the Anchor Point is set to the Top Left of the layer, but you can change the Anchor Point to any point on the layer.

How to animate layer

1.Select the frame you want to animate after running the Aninix plugin.

2. Select the layer and set the anchor point.

3. Press “P” for Position / “S” for Scale, and then you will be able to see the position keyframe (you can find the More shortcut keys below that will help a lot with animating your design).

4. Add and set keyframes to the layer’s Position, Opacity, Scale, Rotation properties to create the desired animation effects.

5. Press Space and play button to play the animation
