v2.0.0

Flip Book v2 is a full rewrite with major new features.

New look

Flip Book's user interface has received a design refresh, with new icons, colors, and a streamlined toolbar.

Keyboard navigation

You can now navigate between frames using the left and right arrow keys. In accordance with this new functionality, the Previous Frame and Next Frame controls have been removed to reduce toolbar clutter.

You can still select any arbitrary frame by clicking a thumbnail in the timeline view.

Better story management

You can now delete the selected story by clicking the trash can icon in the top-right corner of the story area.

You can also rename the selected story by clicking the pencil icon next to the story name.

New FPS Setting

There is a new Frames Per Second setting which has replaced the v1 Frame Duration setting. The available options include 10fps, 24fps, and 30fps.

If you want to convert frame duration to FPS, divide 1 by the frame duration. If you want to convert back, divide 1 by the FPS.

GIF export progress

The loading spinner for the GIF Export UI has been replaced by a progress bar, giving you more visibility into the export process.

New architecture

The application has been entirely rewritten using Mithril, a declarative, component-based library similar to React.
