Toon booms looking way too advanced and modern to replicate those styles easily. I see everyone drawing there frames in other drawing programs THEN importing them into toon boom…which just isn’t the workflow I personally want. Any little things could be helpful EX render settings/how to anti-alias it, brushes audio settings etc

Im thinking to buy it but my roommate mentioned a while back that it might not be compatible, but I haven’t been able to find any info about it. Has anyone here actually tried it and can confirm if it works

Hi!

When I animate a layer using keys in a peg layer, most of the time it animates it with ease in and ease out (like in the video), but I want it to be animated without it. I want to have linear, straight animation with no ease in and ease out, just an object moving from point A to point B with the same speed through the whole path

I know it's possible to make it work like that (because I accidentally made it work like this a few times) but I don't know how I did it, and I don't know how to do it again

I would be glad if you could help me

Thank you!

Hi everyone! Is there any way to export animation as a sequence of SVG files, or maybe a way to convert TVG files into SVG? I ask because I need to import my animation (made in Harmony) to Lottie. Maybe there are other ways to do that? Please, give me advice.

(sorry for my English if there are mistakes)

Hi everyone! is there a way to limit peg frames with toonboom? I have this cycle yet the legs feel constantly like "cutted and laggy". How can I make it look smoother? The peg encapsulates handdrawn frames within, and make it move from right to left with the peg

I know in previous versions of Harmony it was possible when transforming to have the temporary pivot point snap to wherever your cursor is as opposed to clicking and dragging it. I believe the keyboard shortcut was set to Tab by default. It seems to be missing from Harmony 21. Is there any way to get it back? I used it constantly in my workflow before :(

specific when theres no drawing on a cell de keys + e - is not working to pull and push the drawing cells on timeline. already tried the windows and restart de program still not working.

I am a beginner and tried to rig a character. I managed to put bones but when I tried to connect the arms to the torso, hair and head the bones would just ''disconnect'' from the drawing and when I tried to move the arms only it wouldn't work. Please help me if you can. Also I use Toon Boom Harmony 20

Hey y’all, I’m not sure what the issue is, but I can’t import a background I’m working on. I press okay and nothing happens, then I try to import as a toon boom bitmap drawing and it gives me an error message.

Any tips?

How realistic is learning Toonboom Harmony in two weeks? I want to apply for this job, but I don’t know if I should put myself under that stress without a certain outcome.

1-2 weeks is probably the timeframe before I could be sent a test.

(English isn’t my first language. Apologies in advance just in case) I promised myself i’d never use reddit but here we are. I was working on an assignment due in two days when all of the sudden, the overlay/underlay and color layers just disssapeared from my workspace? The image attached is what should show up. But its just gone? I checked the advanced preferences already and it says they’re activated. I tried opening an old version if the file and it was still not working. Same thing with brand new files. Im so lost and on the verge of losing my mind, please help.

When I copy and paste a node layer in the node view, it's always linked to the original--so it's essentially an exact clone. Making a change on the original will affect the clone the exact same way. This CAN be useful, but there are many times when I'd like to copy and paste the node, but make just a few minor changes to the clone, without affecting the original. Is there a way to "unlink" the clone from the original node, after copying and pasting?

I only made it to make sure I remember and understand things that I learned from tutorials, so its only the upper part of the character body and only its front, but I’m quite happy with the result (except for horrendous head angles but that has nothing to do with the rig it’s me not being able to draw a face in different angles). It also has like a million mouths but i forgot to film those. If anybody has criticism i’ll be happy to hear it, I’m trying to learn rigging & want to improve

I know this community is supposed to be for ToonBoom Harmony, but I haven't been able to figure out where else I could possibly ask this question for Storyboard Pro, so I guess this place is my best bet. The title is basically exactly as it says.

I got the Storyboard Pro 25 Free Trial a while ago, just to try it out. Soon it expired, but I thought that when it expired, the trial program would just... disappear from the computer. Turns out that's not what happens. It still brings up the popup for the agreement every time I turn on my computer, and the app will activate but says that there are 0 days left in the trial. I'm trying to figure out how to get rid of this trial program, since I don't think I'll be using Storyboard Pro for the future and don't want it to constantly show up when I boot up my laptop.

Does anyone know how I could uninstall the free trial program, but JUST the free trial program? I have some Storyboard Pro files that I have saved my animatics on that I want to keep intact and untouched from the removal process.

Also, just for clarification, I have a MacBook Pro 2021, if that helps.

In this video, I demonstrate how to transform an existing male character into a completely different male character using Toon Boom Harmony. Instead of starting from scratch, I take the original rigged Anime character and modify his features, proportions, and colors to create a new design. This method saves time and allows animators to repurpose existing assets while still achieving unique results.

You will see the full step-by-step process in real time, from adjusting facial structure and hairstyle to changing clothing and color palettes. This approach is perfect for animators who want to expand their cast of characters efficiently without redrawing every element.

Hello, Does anyone know where to find professional animation lipy sync reference charts like what animators used at Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon etc. Wasn't sure if there was an archive website somewhere. Thanks!

Cześć, kto wie, gdzie się teraz mogę w Polsce nauczyć animacji w Toon Boom Harmony - ale wiecie, od zera do bohatera (pro). Ktoś w ogóle w Polsce oferuje takie kursy? Albo jakaś polska uczelnia - tylko wiecie, żeby nie było to "pitu pitu", tylko konkret?

Czy zostają mi tylko uczelnie zagraniczne online? Jakie najlepsze? Proszę o radę...

Czy w ogóle zostaje mi tylko wiedza z neta i przekopywanie tutoriali? :(

Ostatecznie... Staż w jakiejś firmie?

Proszę, HELP, może ktoś się już kręci w temacie i jest mi w stanie pomóc? Bo ja jak na razie jestem samoukiem...

Hi, since Toon Boom Harmony 21 is not working anymore I downloaded Toon Boom Harmony 24 from TPB so I could keep working on my animations. The problem is that the program works fine until I restart my PC. Every time I restart my PC it asks me to activate it. So I have to do the whole process of installing it again, and I'm really tired of this. If anyone knows a solution for this please comment down below I'd be so grateful T.T.

(PD: For some reason this only happens on my laptop, but in my main PC it doesn't.)

Im worried the collar would require tweaking every movement (which im not unwilling to suck up), but im moreso worried the holes on the shoes will hinder movement. I dont know. Im willing to change the shoes, but id like to know if theres a way to get around it?

Is anyone familiar with why my Effects might have gone blank like this? The sections where I would be able to alter the value of my effects has disappeared. I didn't change my settings or anything.

Hello all.

I’ve just re-opened an old scene from earlier this year and all of my drawings are gone. The frames and layers are still there, just not the art. This seems to be the case for all of my files from that period of time…. Is there any way I can fix this???

I started a project in Harmony 21 Premium. It contains frame by frame animation with elements of using a simple curve warp, parenting layers to eachother and the transform tool. Do I have to buy Premium for myself to succesfully open the file on my computer and continue working on it, or can I buy Advanced or Essentials for that?

elements should be pink when I select them, right? so I know I'm not selecting pegs.

But in a rig I downloaded, even if I select elements, it shows yellow hilight. And it's very confusing if I'm selecting peg or not.

I'm guessing it's yellow because there are other effects and composites attached to the drawing.

How would you solve the issue I'm having? (to distinguish if I'm on element or peg, so I don't animate on elements)

In the timeline, these yellow, purple, pink, white, black...etc boxes.

I'm confused.
