[Feature Request] Selection of frames into a new editor / project

Open tony opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I have to go through a lot of steps to copy a subset of frames into a new editor

Describe the solution you'd like Select frames from the frame reel / timeline, copy

Allow them to be pasted into the timeline of another editor instance

Describe alternatives you've considered Option A: Save to project file and reopen it, delete unused frames and keep only wants wanting to use

Option B:

  1. Copy them to clipboard

  2. explore content

  3. copy the file path

  4. Create blank project, delete first frame (the canvas won't match the clipboard's canvas, so you will get a prompt step 7)

    do not discard old project (or clipboard content will be lost)

  5. Insert -> Media

  6. In explorer, paste the clipboard URL

    change to list view so you can click the images in order

  7. Fit image on canvas

  8. Delete leftover blank frame from starting a new session

  9. Edit / save / etc

Additional context

Gimp has Image -> Duplicate
