Adobe Animate Extension β DFX Panel Support For 2D FX Artists
π DFX Panel v1.0 β Extension for Adobe Animate CC π οΈβ¨
Hey hey! So I made this lil' tool called DFX Panel because I was spending way too much time repeating the same steps while animating FX in Animate π©. You know the dealβcopying frames, nudging layers, clicking the same buttons over and over. I figured, why not build something to make the boring stuff faster?
π Now I can actually enjoy animating again, and I hope it helps you too!
π¨ Whatβs in the box:
- Quick tools to handle the tedious FX steps
- Built for frame-by-frame VFX work π
- Clean layout with no fluff, just stuff youβll actually use
π’ Update (May 12, 2025):
- β Now on MacOS too!
- π₯οΈ Still works on Windows 10 & 11
- π§Ύ Heads up: doesn't support multi-docs/layers (yet!)
π§‘ I made DFX Panel for creators like usβfolks who want to spend less time clicking and more time creating cool stuff. Grab it, play around, and let me know what you think!
Let the FX magic flow π«
