Animate.this

Draw a circle, a square, and a triangle. Then loop through a series of images to create an animation! Easy as one, two, three.

Animate.this is a simple graphics creation application with a basic set of drawing tools and color selection.
The application supports four fixed image resolution in consideration for the lightweight aspect of supporting hardware on mobile devices. Animate.this has four main component. Basic Drawing. Color Selection. Frame Sequence Editing. Importing and Exporting Images.

Basic drawing tools allow the user to: create basic shapes and arbitrarily shaped lines (solid and dotted), fill a region with a specified color, and re-position selected areas of a selected frame. Clicking the "i" button while in the DRAW tab will bring up a scrollable screen that describes each of the drawing tools as well as a stroke width selector. The expansion can be minimized by clicking on the "i" button that should have now changed to a "+" button.

Color selection can be done by tapping on the COLOR tab at the top right corner of the screen. 27 default colors are provided and customized argb values can be created by clicking the "i" button while in the COLOR tab. The expansion can be minimized by clicking on the "i" button that should have now changed to a "-" button.

In addition to the basic drawing tools, the frame sequence editor tools bar near the bottom of the screen allows users to: delete frames, create new frames, re-position the index of a selected frame, copy and paste entire frames, overlay a frame in the same manner as a "green screen," and blend two frames by averaging pixel values. Clicking on the "I" button in the frame sequence editor tools bar will bring up a scrollable screen that describes the function of each tool. The expansion can be minimized by clicking on the "I" button once more.

Key features for importing and exporting images include: importing images from the photo gallery for markup (stretched and maintain aspect ratio settings), exporting images that have been enhanced with simple graphics in PNG or JPEG file formats in "burst" mode or "single" settings, and specifying time duration for each image in the animation sequence of the frame tracker.
