Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to move all the drawings in animation frames in one layer at once. Ie move everything uniformly, otherwise the alternative is one by one moving each drawing in each animation frames one at a time. Many thanks in advance

There is a camera layer that you can move, but else, as far as I know (I don’t want to lie), I haven’t seen a feature like that myself. It would be really cool if it existed though

Camera layer uses keyframes and can be moved using the Move Tool, in case you want to use it (:

To move the contents of multiple drawings in unison, select the drawings you want to work on in the timeline, then go to Animation → Reposition Selected Frames in the main menu. There is a slightly more detailed explanation [in the 0.7.0 release notes](https://www.pencil2d.org/2024/10/pencil2d-0.7.0-release.html#reposition-content-of-multiple-frames-1325). You can quickly select all drawings on a layer by holding down the Alt key and then selecting the first drawing.
