Was bored, so doodled a girl in synfig for you guys

Actually here, I was trying to animate a drop of water dripping down across a surface, hence i gave it a bit of dynamic shape.

How did you make it squibble like that?

I used " noise distortion" layer to create those shaking outlines. But it can increase rendering time. So use it if you really need it.

Ouch.

What is the selected target? GIf? ImageMagick? Magickpp? FFmpeg?

I left it on auto. :eyes:

Could you provide the source file?

sibscribe.zip (449.1 KB)
This is the file.

If you can, use Magick++ as target it works as intended.
Please report on GitHub to we work on this problem later. :slight_smile:

GIFs are problematic for some reason, but when I render them as images first then turn them into GIFs it works fine

I did the same afterwards. Exported the animation into pngs, imported into Shotcut and created webp animation. Also while gif animation was more than 1MB, webp animation was just 100kB and better looking as well as smooth.

Indeed, GIF is outdated and limited, WEBP would be a good alternative to add to Synfig.
Note that ffmpeg can be used directly to produce webp (animated or single frame), so it could be done directly from Synfig (frames produced in Synfig are added to ffmpeg input one-by-one to produce video animations).
See Encoding WebP animated images with FFmpeg
or here How to make FFmpeg convert a PNG sequence into a WEBP sequence, instead of making a single animated WEBP - Stack Overflow
