Flipbook is designed for keyframe animation, but because it is so simple to use, it is a powerful way to explore design concepts through paint-overs.

Benefits of using Flipbook for paint-overs

• Create many versions on top of a common background underlay in a single document.
  • Quickly view other iterations without opening another file.
  • Copy and paste layers and elements from one concept to another.
  • Duplicate concepts to make sub-variations and easily flip between them to compare.
• Create options within the background underlay by using layers to hide/show elements that appear across all paint-over pages.
• Easily export out all concept pages as individual images.

Will Flipbook support your concept workflow?

• The canvas size is limited to a maximum of 13 MPX
  • This is the equivalent of a 4K pixel dimensions, A4 aspect ratio at 200 dpi, or Letter proportions at 200 dpi
• A single common underlay/reference that is used as a background across multiple paint-overs
  • The background can have up to 20 layers or groups
• Each page of paint-over can have up to 20 layers or groups.
• Your total page count is 1000 pages or less per Flipbook file.
• Export output of individual pages can be PNG or layered PSD
