Hi! I am a Mac user for Krita and I have been trying to learn to animate on it. I've watched all the videos and read the tutorials, but every time I try to start a project it feels a bit weird to me. I think I'm doing something wrong but I don't know what I am doing wrong. So here's how it's been for me. I start up a new project. I change it so that I have the animation thing. When I start I click "Create Blank Keyframe" (Because I don't see create new frame so I assume they are the same thing) Then I draw on it. The next thing I do is go a couple frames and create a new blanket frame. I draw, then repeat for the third. The problem I have is when I Click play to watch What I just did, it seems to always be a key frame behind. (It sounds kind of confusing but bare with me) For instance Frame one persist even when it gets to frame two. Then frame two docent happen until it hits frame three. Then frame three never happens for some odd reason. If you can help that would be really great. Thank you!

Hi lymatthew,

does it happens if you try to "step" through with the frame-by-frame controls (next/previous frame)?

Have you tried to switch between "Settings->Configure Krita->Performance->Animation Cache: On-memory/Disk"?

I've found this https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=399259, if it's not related then I'd create a new report (https://bugs.kde.org/).

Thanks for the detailed informations.

Hi mvowada

First I'd Like to thank you for responding

I Tried to look for"Settings->Configure Krita->Performance->Animation Cache: On-memory/Disk" But I don't know where that is. When I look at the settings all I see is Manage Resources, Configure Toolbar, Tool Bars shown, Show Dockers, Dockers, Themes, Switch Application Language, and the author thing, Am I suppose to look somewhere else or...?

"When I look at the settings all I see is Manage Resources, Configure Toolbar, Tool Bars shown, Show Dockers, Dockers, Themes, Switch Application Language, and the author thing, ..."

You're giving a list of all the options in the top menu Settings item. In that drop down list, you need to click Configure Krita which will open up the krita configuration window.

Then you click on items in the sequence given by mvowada: "Settings->Configure Krita->Performance->Animation Cache: On-memory/Disk"

Can you also say which version of krita you're using and what size animation image you've created and how many frames you are trying to make?

Hi ahabgreybeard

I finally found what I was looking for and sorry for not responding ASAP. You both were really helpful and I'd Like to thank you guys. I am using Krita 4.1.5. The image is I believe 1842 by 1080 something along that line. And I made about ten frames. (I think I solved the issue and again thank you for helping )
