It would be very helpful to have a 'preferences' option in Doodly where I can set default colors for text, props and characters. Today I have to open each element and change the color. When there are ...
Like you can set the hand/board style that is the default for all new scenes, it would be nice to set a default transition type and delay time before transition.
I would be great if you would be able to set the start of a drawing to the start of specific word. Now I have to count seconds and play with delay to line it out. If I could just sync an image to a so...
Very simple - let the user set the accurate duration time (in seconds) when it's possible.
For example, if I have a simple scene where there is only a background image and no elements at all in it.
In...
- Copy-paste a complete scene between videos
- A slide by slide view allowing easy navigation between slides (instead of having to do it via the timeline)

It would be nice to have option to turn off and on shadow under hand- with shadow its more difficult to use chrome key filter in video editing software to make transparent background. Thanks
Has anyone experienced shaking text and or props after creating a video? I have tried various resolution settings and still am experiencing "shaky" text and/or props. Not all, but some text blocks /...
I just signed up for this service and I think it would be very useful to have outlines/shapes of each state in the United States as well as the the U.S.A. outline/shape itself.
Hi, guys!
Since Doodly only allows you to share exported videos and not the editing files, an idea has come to my mind.
Giving your private account to somebody else is not a clever decision. Instead...
With Doodly video creation, we create the video, download it and then share it to different social media one by one. If you integrate the feature allowing us to share the video directly from the Doodl...

Some of the assets that users create would not be considered proprietary, and could be great open source elements for others to access at no cost if there were a landing page for those.
It would be nice to have the ability to open videos other people make. For instance, if I am working on a video and want someone to help me I could send my video to them, they could open it up and see...
When the Shift key is held only allow the object to move in one direction (vertical or horizontal). This is a time saver when I need to move things top line up properly (as a small hand shake can move...
Hey!
I am an editor for over 3 years in another program, and I love yours. To make my life easy and many others, I sugest you implement some easy shortcut keys for:

It would make it easier to rearrange the order of slides if they could be in a gallery to drag and drop in sequence, rather than in the long timeline. That is hard to manipulate when you are working w...

Hey guys,
Loving Doodly so far! I use mine to make instructional videos. Would it be possible to add a "draw" feature to the interface? Right now (and please correct me if I'm wrong), if I need a cir...
I know that the hole concept of Doodly is to make the animation look like it is hand drawn on a white/chalk board. However adding in simple animation like being able to have an object resize, stretch/...
If characters/text could follow a path to move across the screen after they are drawn, that would be great. This would include resizing to create a zoom in/out effect. Being able to have a character g...
It would be nice to have simple draw tools: line (solid, or dotted, and ability to select thickness and color), unfilled and filled rectangles and ovals.
I just used photoshop to create a video doodle. Using real time screen capture and the eraser tool to rub out a white overlay which revealed my pre-drawn scene.
Maybe you could do something like this,...
It would be nice to have a feature where one could buy a single image instead of bundles. Images could be for example 1$ each. I think this would encourage customers to purchase more. This way bundle...
Please make the timeline into a slider a la Adobe Audition et al so I can click anywhere in the timeline bar (adjacent to the settings button) drop in anywhere on the preview to fine tune. I waste a l...

Hello.
it would be great if during drawing paths the hand would go smoothly from one path to another with out jumping/skipping from one path position to another as it is now.
In each path could be a b...
The grid is helpful, but it would be much better if we could snap the upper-left corner of an asset to the nearest intersection of two grid lines. This would make precise alignment of two assets with ...
Two related points:
1. When you create a zoom / pan or add sound, they don't move with the scene in the same relative position if the scene's length is changed, and you have to move them manually an...
I think we need a "SnapShot" feature so we can save an image of any frame of the video and then use it later as a background (so we can get a mix of chalk & marker in the same scene, etc.) or used as ...
Have different size templates for the various social media platforms: 1x1 for Instagram for example. Being able to easily switch between them would be even better. Thanks!
Hello, I would like to know if you are thinking of adding the Spanish language in the software to facilitate the work of the members who speak this language, thank you and best regards.
Solution for adding white letters.
Editor background is white.
White letters on a white editor background are invisible
Use a color on the editors background which is not used in the text.
At the moment I can only see fade animation on entry and exit. It would makes sent to have support for scale in, scale out, bounce in / out and translate from one point to another as basic animations....

Hi, currently when you import a new asset, it shows on the top -- temporarily. Once you close the video and return to it, the assets are sorted from oldest to newest. This means that if you return to ...
a sort function to be able to sort videos alphabetically. We can only sort by modified on date which does not work when you need to work on a video from long ago.
Sometimes it's difficult to find a specific video, because there is no sorting. Sorting by date or name would be nice to group several videos from different projects.
Sometimes we would like a sound byte can be repeated, likes a keyboard effect. If a sound byte can repeat itself by a predefined number of times, we no need to duplicate it dozen of times for a conti...

Please let us sort sounds, particularly music, by time (length) so we can quickly choose from music close to our project length. Of course we can trim but the less we have to trim the better. And it ...
Hi,
Currently the sound level is defined on track level. You can only have 4 track. So you don't have the freedom to make some sound clip louder to bring it more forward. (In bad cases to wake up you...
sounds other than loops of slightly irritating music, such as fanfares, drummroll,, etc, and names for the music that says anything, not just "blue mist" and similar
When I select and insert music, I cannot later see which music I did select. It would be nice if I could put the cursor on the music line and the title would pop up on right click.
Pressing spacebar to play is a universal keyboard shortcut. Also, some standard Ctrl-x, Ctrl-c, Ctrl-v shortcuts for cut/copy/paste would be most welcome.
I wish I could type the speaking notes as I create the visual elements...

Specify how much time take each Fx inside the square. This will help to have more detail of how much time will take each scene. Obviously this is information is in addition of the time bar.
The speech bubble hook all point down, makes it hard to attach a speech bubble to large character.
Suggest bigger variety of speech bubbles or editable hooks
I am mostly interested in having multiple conversations, so I need the bubble to disappear and another take place a few seconds later.
Something like this....

It would be incredibly helpful if the text writing tool had a basic spell check feature with the little markings underneath potentially misspelled words.
Some work on memory management and overall application stability would be a good idea. Particularly when a composition has multiple scenes, panning FX and you're trying to record voice-over audio. Whe...
The Asset Setting and Asset editting very limited on provided features for instance the setting/editing should be more flexible like transform, rotate, group, ungroup and etc.
Thank you.
It would be nice to be able to save a specific custom font colour with the standard colours you already have. It would be quicker than typing in the font number each time one wants to use it.
I think it would be better if there is a baseline standard of poses, emotions and expressions for each character. Sometimes I used a particular character only to find out that halfway through, a facia...
I am resubmitting this request for DOODLY: I think it would be better if there is a baseline standard of poses, emotions, and expressions for each character to be consistent. Sometimes I used a partic...

I'd like to be able to start my preview at the place of my choosing.
It's a pain when the review starts at the beginning, every time I what to see how my edit looks.
Especially on a long project!
When I open Doodly, it is full screen on my main monitor. Most programs retain the previous settings so that the opening screen returns to where it was last used and at the last screen size.

Does anyone else think it’s odd that the eraser starts rubbing out blank space before drawing a new object. Granted this doesn’t happen all the time, but just enough for the view to notice.
Currently, the hand disappears after drawing an asset and reappears at the start of the path for the new asset. This is an issue particularly for a progression of small assets, with short durations, w...
