Sprites and bones

[djmati11]

Can you add sprites functionality to Stykz. And tools: brush etc..

To sprites, I think it will be good to add bones functionality (like Adobe Flash).

What you think about this?

Sprites is already on The list but bones i don't know...

Bones could maybe be used for this feature:

Importing animated GIFs - We can't do this because the GIF format basically just holds a series of raster (bitmap) slides in order, and there's no way we can extract any "figure" info from them. The only thing we'd be able to do is to possibly import each frame as a full-frame sprite (maybe for tracing or positioning purposes), but once an animation has been exported to GIF, we can't reconstruct the animation from the GIF itself.

And even though it's possible to write "metadata" (identifying information) into a GIF that's created by Stykz, the only thing I can see this being useful for is to recreate a .stykz from a GIF because the original .stykz was lost. In any event, it's not something we will be doing.
