r/ClipStudio

Anyone got this book? how is your experience with it? Are the info contained in this book easily obtainable online? thanks!

(Edit 2: Solved! You guys pointed out my license was for an older version, I installed 1.13.2 on my laptop and now it shows the pop-up asking me to switch licenses to my laptop! Thank you guys so much!!)

(Edit to add: My specific version of the program is Clip Studio Version 3.0.4 with Clip Studio Paint Pro. Our home computer runs Windows 11, my laptop either runs 10 or 11 but I'm leaning towards 11, it was a hand-me-down from a friend. I use a Huion Kamvas 13 Gen 3 drawing pad. There aren't any additional "accessories" that I can think of.)

I'm moving out soon and will be using a personal laptop instead of the home computer that I've been using CSP on up until now. Is there any way I can use CSP on that laptop without paying again?

I've seen other posts in different places about this topic, but they either don't match my situation (such as people getting a pop-up asking to switch licenses from one PC to another) or contradict one-another (like people saying you can only use multiple devices with the monthly/yearly plan, which seems to contradict the FAQ if I'm reading it right). For me, I was able to download Clip Studio onto my laptop, see my projects in the cloud, and download them from there, but when I clicked "Draw", it asked me to pay to do so. I am fairly certain I was completely closed out of the program on the home PC. So far I haven't found any advice for what to do in that case. (I hope I'm not missing anything obvious here lol)

I believe I have the perpetual license. I have a screenshot of what I see when I click "manage plans" on my clip studio profile. I will give more info if needed.

I just installed it so i might just be an idiot for not finding it, but when i searched it up it said i was supposed to find a correction layer or something but i can't find it in either edit or layer.

Any logical reason why frame 6 (orange) displays for one more frame into frame 7 (yellow) even tho it's clearly already changed on the timeline?

First image is with shading (ignore the weird blue artifacts. This is a proof-of-concept animation so I didn't bother cleaning up some of the experimental coloring that broke through the selection due to being vector lines). I have the color shift below the shading layer (that also has the cerulean you see). Second image is without shading.

I'm trying to animate a fight scene in CSP (EX ver 5) and I'm wondering if there's a more efficient way to animate a shifting color (example on third image). My fight scene takes place in an alien factory processing a material that changes colors when melted down and I want it to provide a stylized yet diegetic lighting. So for example, when Curt here has his moment, the screen will pause on his blue color. When the green guy does a thing, it's green. Villain gets red. Etc. Scrolling through a color wheel with a fill bucket isn't the worst thing in the world, but I want to get it smoother beyond just manually adding more frames if possible. Or at least have some advice on doing it cleaner beyond just eyeballing it.

Last panel is part of the action scene so far to give a sense of the motion the scene will have.

I have a friend who is designing a 3d background in blender. So the idea is to put the 2d fight into an animated 3d background which means whatever technique we use needs to translate well into blender shaders because of course I had to think up this really cool but super difficult animation thing I want to implement in my opening fight scene. My ambition is like diarrhea. When I'm crying and think there can't possibly be more, my body somehow manifests it and I can't stop until it's all out.

In Krita they have this feature of automatically saving the colors you've been using on this list, and is a very useful tool. I would like to know if Clip Studio has something like this too.
