@neomar_estudios Hey thanks. Dark mode should be coming in an upcoming version (probably 0.8 or so) since as far as I know devs have been working on it and are actively testing color contrast on different systems. For now we released 0.7.2 today as a version to fix various issues.

Addendum: It seems the macOS image was automagically setup up by our deployment pipeline and is only working for ARM architectures. For those of you with Intel-based macs please wait a little bit while devs make sure images are correctly working for your OS architecture 🙇

PSA: This is a BUG FIX release. Any tool or capability that is achievable by Pencil2D team will be slated for v0.8.0.

Thanks!

@GiroFrankMusic Lastly, please also check the recovery guide for the 1% chance to recover any leftover file from the temp folder, either because there are still assets there or by using file recovery software (at your own discretion) to find the erased drawings.

@GiroFrankMusic In extreme cases like this, we recommend ppl to save backup copies as PCLX, but have the working copy as PCL file format (File > Save As > PCL (Legacy) so contents won't be saved in the temp folder but on a folder of your choice. Please also download the latest version 2/2

@neomar_estudios @djaxx @kdenlive @shotcutapp For Linux and MacOS, as far as I understand, currently there's Pencil2D adapts to your desktop themes. For Windows however is a bit complicated.
Generally devs are working to implement actual theming support to get a "Dark Mode" by re-coloring the interface. It's a WIP

@el_tlau Moho esgrime dibujo vectorial, y sus capas "frame-by-frame" son apilables y equivalentes a capas de vector en Harmony o Animate. El problema sería la sensación de dibujo viniendo del tradicional.

Intenta probar la demo de 30 dias + curso gratis en su YT para saber si te gusta👍

[Pencil2D @pencil2d]

@THANIYEL2020 Letters indicate layers. Here A is main layer. B right arm. C scarf. Numbers tell order e.g A(1) is 1st drawing. If Num is circled it's a Key. If triangled, a breakdown. If plain, an inbetween. On B4/B6 line arcs tell spacing(line visual distance)is even. B5 is 1/4 inbtwn near B6

If you'd rather have purchasable solutions due to corporate requirements:
For character animation quite frankly @MohoAnimation is the best next thing.

[Pencil2D @pencil2d]

The end of an era for sure. My honest advice is: Invest in open-source tools & workflows for your business. Apps can improve long-term if we all band together and hire programmers to enhance existing alternatives for the greater good.

Adobe Animate will discontinue on March 1st.

@Jontanium Thanks for checking out so quickly! These answers will hopefully help devs to pinpoint the issue faster since it could be only a rendering issue and not an actual color replacement / erasure problem. Now we'll have to wait for them to review the thread when they're available👍

[Pencil2D @pencil2d]

@Jontanium 4. Also please save a backup copy. Then try to make it fail and If this happens can you save a new copy of the file (File > Save as) close the app, then reopen the new copy and confirm if the color is completely removed or if it's ok?

[Pencil2D @pencil2d]

@Jontanium Hey thanks. Feedback shared. Testing right now the issue. Can you let me know:
1. Does this happen after you use any other specific tool?
2. Happens if you're at 100% zoom or zoomed out?
3. If this happens, try export the image as a jpg. Is it output w/o color? does it look ok?
