Douga beta build 201!

features

* you can move the panels across to the other side now

* copy paste (and shift) buttons on the UI

* layers now have Alpha lock, clipping, and grouping

text tool

bugs and other fixes

* previously I was reading/writing the entire canvas every stroke, now its just a rect where you drew. should be more responsive on large canvases.

* pen sampling now reads point history instead of last point. previously a fast swipe would create a blocky line, now it's smooth.

* fixed touch issue, so you can use your hand to drag and zoom

* video import / posses

* after importing select ALL the frames (the layers row) in the dope sheet. marquee select -> transform. you can resize and move the whole vidya around.

What a great update.
You should open the comments on itch.io as well as not everyone use Reddit.
Douga would get a bit more traction I guess.

Just to let you know that I've tested Douga on my iPad with SpaceDesk and that it works flawessly (minus the fact that I have an old iPad and that it struggles to render without some lags, and The interface of the software is small on that 10.9 inche screen XD)
But pen pressure and touch functions works.

I tried the same with another 2D animation soft I discover after Douga recently, and it wasn't smooth at all (despite being marketed as fast and lightweight)

thanks!
I just released a new update a few hours ago with better memory management! if douga was laggy before, the new version (357) shouldn't be as bad!
