It would be nice to have the capability to superimpose the drawing grid over a graphical image. This would help hand-name image conversion. Or is that option already around in JavE3 and I'm just missing it? The same idea could also be applied in ASCII animation, rendering the last N frames in shading gray under current frame (this is a tecnique cartoonists use even today with software, I think). Oh, yes, this is useful for 30+FPS ASCII animations. :) pensatamente, Cthulhu -- Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu http://www.rlyeh.it/ wgah'nagl fhtgan! <cthulhu (at) rlyeh (dot) it>

Hi Cthulhu, > It would be nice to have the capability to superimpose the drawing grid > over a graphical image. This would help hand-name image conversion. Or > is that option already around in JavE3 and I'm just missing it? Are you talking about the "platicbag technique" or "watermark"? It is included in JavE for a very long time: Choose the Watermark tool from the tool bar on the left - it is the tool second from the bottom (yes, the one with the ugly icon - can anyone provide me a better one?). In the options dialog you can then load an image to use it as watermark. Move it around and scale it easily - you can also adjust brightness. Switch to another tool to draw whatever you want, hit Ctrl-P or the watermark button at the bottom of the editor to show/hide the watermark. That's it. Or are you looking for something else?
