What does
this view do?
The animating tiles view
can be used to create small animations using the tiles in
the tile set set as frames. Each animating tile occupies one row in the animating tiles view. The frames of the animating tiles are shown in columns at the right of the animating tile. You can select an animating tile, the tile will then become a 1 by 1 block which can be copied to a layer in the Layer View. |

Mouse
Controls
You can use the mouse to
select frames or animating tile in the animating tiles
view. When this frame is empty, it will show one
dark-colored tile, which is the placeholder for a new
animating tile. You can select it by clicking on it,
which will invert its color to show it is selected. You can add frames to an animating tile by selecting the desired animating and then, while holding down the CTRL key on the keyboard, click on tiles in the tiles view that should be added as frames. When an animating tile (not one of its frames) is selected in the animating tiles view, pressing the right mouse button will bring up the tile's animating tiles properties, such as animation speed, ping-pong loop, etc. |
