This release focuses on a couple of very handy exports. You can now export Lottie into iOS and Android projects, reducing your time to iterate and helping with handoff to a dev.

Lottie iOS & Android
We added an export for you to test your Lottie animations directly in iOS or Android project. You can also just give your dev the project you export.

  • Create a Lottie iOS export option
  • Create a Lottie Android export option
  • Standardize and move both into Templates
  • Add font export to Android and iOS
  • Create packages for bundling code for each platform
  • Use minified Lottie files when exporting
  • Create readmes
  • Here’s a bit of butter… The Lottie iOS export will automatically run pod install for you. Mmmmm.
  • Dynamically update Android SDK path for the exported project
  • Updated the Lottie-Web readme along the way.
  • Use proper template name in export window and export folder

Bugs
A whole swarm of bugs. Well, more like small swarm of bugs. Or, even, say, a few annoying fruitflies. Whatever…

  • Fixed a crash with the Timeline creation controller
  • Some lovely, patient, users were experiencing a very hard crash for us to resolve… We think it had to do with their source files… We fixed it. Maybe.
  • Fix the createPlayer function in our Web exports
  • Fix reversing of open paths

Path Editing
Ahhhh, yes. We’re working through our path editing feature. Here’s some tasty treats for you to chew on.

  • You can now hit the Return key to enter path editting mode for a selected layer.
  • You can exit path editing mode by hitting ESC…
  • … and when you do, the parent layer of the object will be selected
  • Oh, and you can use a menu item now to get into path editing mode as well
  • When you create points on a curve, they will be mirrored.
  • Improve handling of position of control points and rounded corners*
  • Dragging a layer will now snap to path points.

Polish & Other Lovely Things
We made a few tiny, lovely, small improvements to the app as well this time around.

  • Added some links into our app in certain places - e.g. when signing into your Flow account.
  • Set UTMs for doc and tutorial buttons on Welcome Window
  • Properly export the createPlayer function for our Web exports
