This update mainly fixes bugs and stabilizes the editor

What's new

• added support of css IDs and classes in lottie export;

Improved

• introduced new bridge between Figma plugin and Aninix editor mechanism;

Fixed

• compatibility with older browsers;
• users presence in editing sessions;
• problem when the undo stack clears unexpectedly;
• optimized layer visibility toggle;
• other minor issues.

This is one of the most time-consuming releases in Aninix history. In addition to extracting the editor to an independent environment, we wrote a new backend infrastructure. We tried to make it fast and flexible so that subsequent releases wouldn't take so much time.

A new architecture has been implemented that consists of the following parts:

• A separate plugin in Figma, which we called the Aninix Connector. It communicates with our servers and "broadcast" data from Figma;

• an independent Editor that sits in your browser and receive data from the plugin;

• we use our servers to transfer data, but all the data is transferred through secure channels directly between the plugin and the browser. We do not store any data until you decide to publish the projects by yourself.

We think this solution will make your work more convenient:

• The editor in the browser gets priority in the use of system resources, hence it works faster;

• it takes up more visual space, now there is no need to look at the window with other window;

• we have kept a direct integration with the Figma: if you change something in the design, the changes will be immediately displayed in Aninix;

• animation data is stored together with your designs inside of Figma.

  
  

New Inspector

• updated design;

• it display almost all animated parameters.

🔥 What's new

New opening project flow
We've separated "new project", "open project" and "create transition" commands. So now it's more user-friendly to work with.

All frames can be used as target for Aninix
Previously we supported only root frames but currently we support all frames. For example you can create independent animation of buttons inside page.

🔥 What's new

Web based animation inspector sharable by link
Share animation with developers by copy-paste links.

Frame sync
Synchronise your animations with changes of design in Figma.

Improvements

• added: boolean operation node;
• improved: workflow of corner radius;
• improved: renderer;
• fixed: cmd/ctrl/shift key presses.

Improvements

• Improved performance of vector layers optimization;
• fixed: issue when selected text crash plugin;
• fixed: issue when selected line crash plugin.

🔥 What's new

Offset module
Now it's possible to align segments and keyframes by provided offset.

Keyframes module in properties panel
We've added possibility to work with keyframes from side panel. We think it should make workflow more convenient and intuitive.

Static gradients support
Linear and radial gradients are now supported.

P, R, O, S hotkeys
P – Position;
R – Rotation;
S – Scale;
O – Opacity.

Improvements

• fixed: issue when big corner radius distort layers;
• fixed: issue when auto transition applied in unexpected order;
• fixed: added back support of stroke cap and stroke join;
• fixed: issue when hotkeys not working as expected;
• fixed: issue when locked layers in viewport blocked selection of other layers;
• fixed: addition of keyframes to only one layer. Now keyframes adding to all selected layers;
• improved: UX of keyframes and segments selection on timeline;
• improved: UX of animation inspector.

🔥 What's new

⚡️ Added auto transitions
Auto transition working in the same way as Smart Animate in Figma. Just select multiple frames before import them into project.

Added copy paste segments and keyframes
Currently it works only in context of one layer. So if you select and copy keyframe on one layer then you can paste keyframe on the same layer.

Added multiple selection on timeline
Now with drag and drop on timeline you can select multiple keyframes.

Added support of all image types
You can import Fill, Fit, Crop and Tile image types.

Improvements

• fixed: issue when copied frame in Figma linked to the same project in Aninix;
• fixed: letter spacing in font layers;
• fixed: issue when timeline dissaper on hotkeys zoom-in and zoom-out;
• fixed: issue when corner radius in big values morph shapes too much;
• fixed: issue when images not appear in exports;
• improved: plugin speed. We've rebuild undo/redo algorithm;
• and more minor bugs fixed.

🔥 What's new

Added helper module
Now you can quickly navigate to important links

Added support of Component and Component Set nodes

Added feature to remove layers
Now you able to remove layers by selecting them and pressing «Delete» button on Win or «Backspace» button on Mac

Added feature to show animated properties with its layers
Just press U on your keyboard to reveal all animated properties with layers

Improvements

• fixed: issue when max number doesn't apply to corner radius on rectangles which cause weird shapes;
• fixed: auto drag'n'drop event on layers when user drag'n'drop spatial path tangents;
• fixed: apply of no-mirroring value on spatial paths;
• fixed: now spatial path preview (selected state of layers) appear on top of everything;
• fixed: issue when spatial path animation applied in unexpected behaviour.

Improvements

• fixed: image hash import;
• fixed: now timeline updates on each change;
• fixed: issues when importing huge frames;
• fixed: long layer names now properly display on timeline;
• fixed: timeline initial view.

🔥 What's new

Added menu
Added handy actions to menu.

Hold shift when dragging keyframes to snap it to closer keyframes by time

Improvements

• Added support of B/N to align preview range;
• Removed labels from properties panel;
• Fixed value on cycles when rotation negative;
• Added support of overshoot animation in graphs.

🔥 What's new

Layers Alignment
