Synfig is a powerful, industrial-strength vector-based 2D animation software package, designed from the ground-up for producing feature-film quality animation with fewer people and resources. While there are many other programs currently on the market to aid with the efficient production of 2D animation, we are currently unaware of any other software that can do what our software can.2D Animation has traditionally been very expensive because every frame must be drawn by hand. Even with today\'s digital inking and painting software, the process still relies on individuals hand-drawing each frame. This laborious task is called \"tweening\".Synfig will eliminate the task of manual tweening, producing fluid, smooth motion without the animator having to draw out each frame individually.This allows you to produce 2D animation with fewer people while producing a product of a higher quality.What\'s New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]· Segment and Blines tangents are calculated more accurately· Don\'t allow feather to be negative in any layer· New Logarithm, Int String, Angle String, Joined List, Real String, Time String, Dot Product, Gradient Colour, Vector X, Vector Y, Vector Length, Vector Angle convert types· Remove TENSION from TCB modes as it is the same as TEMPORAL TENSION· Unless OpenEXR half mode is used, don\'t ask synfigstudio to depend on it· Added \"Link to Bline\" feature· Fix several bugs: plant layer, libavformat, time format FFf, libswscale straight onto method, eyedrop tool and straight blend method for shape type layers· Fix some compiler warnings· Rename \'offset\' and \'pos\' to \'origin\'· Add French and Spanish translations· Update the Windows builds to use OpenEXR 1.6.1· The JPEG target can be switched on/off now· Fix typos and other issues
