Preview without rendering

[pgilfernandez]

I've seen that the Play button always makes Friction to render a preview and then play the render... is there any way to just play the viewport by "moving the time line to the next frame and next frame, etc..."? I find that way pretty fast if you grab the "time line" and move it to the left... couldn't it be done?

Probably.

Playback works as in Olive, it plays the rendered cache. When you drag the timeline you are updating the skia canvas, same as the cairo canvas in Inkscape etc.

So we would need to implement two different playback functions.
