When you hand-draw animation, you don’t always draw in the center of your paper. Sometimes you might draw more to the right so that you can see images better as you are flipping through them. Or, if you are preparing work for a traditional process, you may draw your images relative to their final placement in the composited film.
When you import and vectorize bitmap images you may find that they are too far from the center for you to work on them with ease in Toon Boom Studio. Especially when you can work in a Sceneplanning view window to layout entire elements, it makes more sense to draw images in the center of the Drawing View window.
You can reposition all drawings in a vector element in one move to correct drawings that might be too far from the center to work with easily.
To reposition all drawings in an element:
1. Select a drawing element.
2. Select Tools > Drawing Tools > Reposition All Drawings. The vector drawings in the drawing element become selected in the Drawing View window.
3. Use your mouse to reposition the drawing. Toon Boom Studio moves all drawings in the element in the same way you moved the drawing in the cell.
