== ''Elegant Light Linux Animator'' ==<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Ella is a light animation software intended to achieve a aim of the Linux world : a functionnal and WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) 2D animation sofware. <br />
At this time (March 2012) Ella has reached the 0.4.0 revision : the Flash (SWF) exportation are almost fully functionnal, and you can use some ActionScript(tm) for buttons. SVG exportation works, but with remaining bugs and limitations (no sound, no buttons for example).<br />
<br />
<br />
Some morphings works for SVG exportation, but we're waiting for improvements from swtools.<br />
<br />
<br />
Ella's development is made on ''Launchpad'', here : [https://launchpad.net/ella https://launchpad.net/ella].<br />
<br />
Since December 2011, the projet 'Ella Renaissance' is started ; 'Ella Renaissance' aims to be a more usable version (that means : don't include last code improvements) ;<br />
