===Working with the application===
+===Tools overview===
+Tupi has many features as an animation software which can be explored to make simple and complex animations. We've explained tools provided in tupi which users can explore. <br>

+Users can use various tools available on the left panel to draw, also they can use import tab on the top panel to import any svg or bit map files.
+# Pencil : users can use pencil to draw free hand drawing.
+# Ink : Users can use this tool to draw using different colors as ink.
+# PolyLine : User can sketch various diagrams or shapes using this tool.
+# Brushes : Users can use rectangle, ellipse and lines brushes to draw.
+# Object selection : Objects made in different layers or frames can be selected using this tool. This helps users to modify using flips, orders and also we can group objects based on our needs.
+# Nodes selection- This tools helps to reorder nodes which were created while sketching. Users can only use this if they've used PolyLine option.
+# Internal fill- This tool is a bucket fill option which allows users to fill in the objects drawn. Users can choose the colours from palette below.
+# Line fill- This tool allows users to fill into the lines drawn while drawing or sketching.
+# Tweening- tweening is a software feature that allows you make this process easier and faster for some specific kind of animations by calculating and generating some frames for you between an initial and a final state.
+# Misc tools- These tools include exporting that single frame as image, storyboarding, camera (which users can use to put their photos),Papagayo lip sync features which can used for advanced animation including motion of characters etc.

−Step 1 - Goto to applications -> graphics -> Tupi to start resources creation. <br>
−Step 2 - After the application window opens, go to file and click on new project and it will ask you to select the presets for project, click OK. <br>

−Initially to create the animation there will be frames in the tupi each frame consists of separate drawings in it. The above image it shows how we can use frame idea to get animation. <br>
−In second frame we will be having transparent frame type so we can keep frame1 as reference and draw the 2nd frame to make slight changes in it.<br>
−==File formats for creation==
+The frames starts executing, creating an animation of objects or shapes drawn. <br>

+Once all the frames are done we have to click on player button there we can select the speed of the frames. <br>
==Saving the file==
==Saving the file==
−After users have finished creating animations of their choice, they can save it as a project which will save the entire project as .tup file. Users can also export the project into images or video formats.
==Export and publishing files==
==Export and publishing files==
−We can export this into many formats and save it in our local system<br>
−[[File:Export-dialog.png|500px|Multiple formats to export our project]]
−# Video format - This is the most versatile format which can be played in any platforms like OGV, FLV etc. <br>
−# Open video formats - This is another format which can be played as a video in any platform <br>
+# Image arrays - Each frames in the animation can be saved as .PNG format which will hlep us in saving it as .GIF file in another application, also we can save them as .JPEG, .SVG image sequencing formats <br>
