Description Emmet O'Neill 2025-12-09 00:37:54 UTC
COLDfinch: "Is there a way to convert all frames in an animation into separate layers?"

Me: "No, but there should be! Especially since we support turning a group of layers into an animated layer."

Let's make sure that if we implement conversion from a group to an animation, that we also implement conversion from an animation into a group, especially since it'd be useful for some workflows. :)

(Note: In the case converting from animation -> group -> animation again, it's very likely that specific timing information or clone frames could no longer be accounted for. So it probably wouldn't be a "lossless" conversion, at least not the minimum viable feature version.)
