Cutter tool

Cutter tool: The cutter tool in TBS is a new tool that was added with V3.0 and it is very different from the other cutting and erasing tools. With the cutter tool you can make a stroke through an object and it is just like you cut it with a sharp xacto knife blade just like this tool's icon. You don't need to move anything like with the scissor tool, just make your cut and it exists. This is really useful for breaking up a character to create parts for cut-out animation or for any task that requires being able to create a cut in a line or shape without moving it. Think about how many times you might need to cut a large filled shape just so you could just select smaller parts of that shape. The cutter tool makes this super clean and easy. There are many creative techniques that this can facilitate, one of which is really quick cell shading of a painted object. You just use the cutter tool to draw the outline of the shaded area and then change the fill color to your shadow shade. This can also be done with the stroke tool.
