Here, I am giving out the following simple steps to make the eyes blink in synfig studio. It will be quite easy to follow. First draw the eye in synfig studio. Once done, click on the animate button. After then, create a keyframe by clicking the plus button at 0f when the eye is open. Move two frames ahead and create another keyframe. While at this keyframe, close the eyes by moving the vertices. Again move two frames ahead and this time just duplicate the frame at 0f by clicking the button highlighted in the screenshot below. Repeat " open-close-open " keyframes at whichever time interval you want your character's eyes to blink. That's it. Just preview your animation.

Now go back to the main synfig directory, open the share folder and create a new folder. Name it themes After that go back to the folder where you extracted the theme, copy the theme folders and paste them into newly created themes folder i.e., in the "\share\themes" That’s it. Now enjoy synfig the way you like it. Here’s how the new theme ...
