At Digital Media World in London, Toon Boom Technologies released USAnimation Version 5's second service pack. In addition to bug fixes and general improvements, this service pack brings with it a number of new features. They include: New Line Texturing, which allows for different styles of line animation (like crayon, chalk, etc.), and now in Sceneplanning, one can display all the keyboard shortcuts in an easy-to-use help menu. In addition, the pack offers a horizontal flipping of images, which means that one can now flip images horizontally when scanning. This feature can be a useful function when two elements are drawn on both sides of the same paper (e.g. shadows on one side of the paper with the character on the other).
