Update to the editor

Just made a small update to the editor.

It's been reported a few times that the editor gets laggy when there are a large number of frames. Also, it often doesn't centre itself correctly.

To fix these issues I have:

- limited the timeline to show 11 frames at once

- removed the fancy animation so that the correct frame is always centred and highlighted correctly.

Hope this helps!

It looks nice

Sorry, I should clarify - these are changes to the timeline only. I know the canvas area also has sizing and positioning issues. These will be addressed another time.

and i realised on an old device (like the windows 7 im on now,) slows down the speed in the editor, and on a faster device, (like my family chromebook,) works better.

wait is it this one-

When you switched between frames, the timeline used to smoothly scroll to the next frame.

I had to remove it for now until I figure out a nice way to have it without breaking the alignment.
