Hello, I am a fresh beginner when it comes to pixel art (art in general...) but I wanted to start learning some and decided to use Pyxel edit, I thought it looked nice.

What I am trying to do is import two 32*32 pictures, and then copy them onto a new canvas with two tiles on it to make a 2 frames animation. But I can't seem to be able to copy the pictures and then past them onto the new one, how to do this?

Thanks =)

Hi there!
The easiest way is probably to import the two images with Import > Image, then create a new tiled document with enough frames, and then using the selection tool to select and copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) the images into the new document.

If the images are exactly the same size, you can also import them into a open document with File>Import>Import tiled image, and chosing "Identify tiles" and "Tiles to current document". In this case the tile size in the document must be the same size as the images.

Ok, thanks, I know what I did wrong now. I got both ways to work now.
