Idk where to turn on panning mode
Panning mode is located under the undo/redo buttons. It’s the middle one with multiple sticks. Isn’t used as much nowadays unless there’s a reason to.
panning is super useful for madness animations
just thought i’d point that out
panning mode is one of those things I use a LOT when screenshotting stickfigure submissions so it’s OP in my eyes
How do you use the ” Copy and paste all stickfigure properties ” feature?
you have to select stick you want properties of, you press copy properties and then you select another stick (optionally on different frame), you press paste. Then you just choose what properties you want pasted. Self explanatory.
ur the best for replying here

How do you transfer animations to sticknodes pro?
It automatically transfers you don’t have to do anything except not uninstall the other sticknodes until you open pro.
it’s a different process depending on if you have ios or android.
i believe on ios you can just go to the files app, find the project file you want to transfer, long press, then select “share” and “open in sticknodes”
