Some animation practice in Synfig

Interface...

People, look. I love synfig studio, I'm so used to it, it's amazing for animation.

But, is it even possible to make it look better? I mean, interface is just uncomfortable sh*t, and the worse thing is that the movements aren't smooth when I try to adjust or just move my objects. It's like I just move my object with the green dot, it doesn't moves. It only moves after I let go of it, and it moves immadiently.

It makes things look and work uncomfortable, I can't even move things properly, because I don't see them moving.

Is there's a way to fix it? Like a plugin for real-time editing or something? Like in normal programs where you can drag or rotate anything, and see the way it rotates or moves. Not like you've moved it, let go of it and then immediately it changes its rotation or size or position...

Is there's any way of fixing it?

Walk cycle practice I did in Synfig. Found this tutorial where you use a little circle on the background to mark the position of the character's foot to match its speed.

Faster way to turn all elements of one colour to another?

I'm doing an animation consisting of things spinning inside other spinning things, but it's got a lot of little parts, and when duplicating these layers and groups, each duplicate needs a different colour scheme. Is there a command or a layer that changes everything red to pink, everything dark blue to light blue, everything dark yellow to light green, &c.?

Add slash fx, remove slash fx

Hello, I'm trying to animate a 2d knight. He has a sword, so every time he attacks, I want a slash effect to appear, then once he finishes the attack, the slash effect disappears. Problem is, Idk how - the slash effect (a separated png just like the other body parts) just appears all the time or it just isn't visible all the time. I'm a noob at this, so I just want it visible during part of the animation. How can I do that?

I'm new here and new to synfig

I'm trying to help my husband with his YouTube channel. I want to use synfig to animate parts of flora in a video. like having tree branches wave or grasses waving. stuff like that. I just started but I like synfig. I know everyone says synfig is just as hard as blender. But blender didn't work with my brain. I wasn't able to get through the first lesson. I'm doing the synfig lessons and I understand the lessons. I'm hoping to get to know everyone on here and to understand some of the problems and how you all work through them. I want to know how you show off your wonderful videos of animation. I want to know if there are other places besides YouTube. etc.
