Glaxnimate

Glaxnimate is a vector animation editor developed within the KDE community, focused on creating 2D motion graphics and animations. The application provides a timeline interface where users can manage keyframes, interpolate property changes, and structure artwork using hierarchical layers. Vector drawing tools allow the creation of paths, shapes, and text objects, with complete control over fill attributes, stroke properties, and node manipulation.

The software supports shape morphing, enabling smooth transitions between distinct vector outlines along the animation timeline. It handles multiple file formats for import and export, including vector graphics and standard web animation formats, allowing integration into broader multimedia production pipelines. Users can apply various effects and modifiers to shape layers to dynamically alter their appearance over time without manual redrawing of every frame.

Built for Linux platforms, Glaxnimate operates as a standalone desktop tool for animators and designers working on motion graphics assets. The interface includes panels for property inspection, color selection, and layer management. It does not function as a raster painting application or a full video editor, maintaining a specific focus on vector-based motion design and timeline animation control.
