In addition to editing the bindings between bones and layers directly on the canvas, with ToonSquid 2.0.13 you can now also edit the bindings using a layer list in the bones effect inspector. This is especially useful for binding bones to group layers.

Not only can you import PSDs, but you can also export your ToonSquid animations as layered PSD files. This is especially useful if your professional animation pipeline relies on PSD files, such as for further editing in Adobeยฎ Photoshopยฎ or for sharing with other artists!

If you draw in Adobeยฎ Photoshopยฎ or other programs that can export PSD files, you can now import your work as a layered PSD file directly into ToonSquid. No more need to export each layer as a separate image and then reassemble them in ToonSquid!

If you had previously imported an ABR brush that uses dual brush settings into ToonSquid and noticed that it looked different than expected, delete the brush from your brush library and import the ABR file again.

Handbook The ToonSquid Handbook explains every feature of the ToonSquid animation app.

Quick clarification on vector groups in ToonSquid 2:
You can simply keep the vector group collapsed and treat it as a single vector layer. They work in exactly the same way as before. No workflow changes are necessary!
