%%%--- Operating System, Graphics card ---
Windows 7 64 bits Ultimate
Nvidia Gforce 9800 gt

- Blender version with error, and version that worked ---

Blender 2.68a

- Short description of error ---

Grease Pencil dont create a drawing in current frame less than 1.

- Steps for others to reproduce the error (preferably based on attached .blend file) ---

1- Open Blender.
2- Position the current frame in 0 or a negative frame, to start a draw in this frame.
3- Begin to draw with grease pencil.
4- The drawing always appears in frame 1 when I check in DopeSheet in Grease Pencil Mode.

%%%Is using frame 0 or a negative frame # a common workflow? I am not familiar with the reason for this workflow. Could you please explain why you would want to draw on frame 0 or a negative frame # and if it is common for other people to do the same?

This will also help in understanding how to do a proper fix if this is a workflow that needs to be accommodated.

Just for reference, I can crash Blender and most other programs when I do some unorthodox workflows. But IMHO I don't consider that a bug in Blender or other programs. I consider that a warning not to do unorthodox workflows. ; )

Thanks.

%%% In blender is possible add a key in a lot of properties and objects in DopeSheet in any frame don't matters it is neggative or positive or cero frame. Why eliminates the possibilities of add grease pencil drawing in frames less than 1??, for me this is a bug, all other properties is possible unless this. The workflows need to be flexible to other situation.

Example: suppose that I have a blocking pease off animation starting in frame 1, but I want to see what would be the previous motion of the character, and decided to draw with grease pencil in negative frame, that is a problem because I need to move all the frame forward. That is an example why I thinks this is importart. Sorry is this is not a bug :)%%%

%%%Fixed in r60412, now neg framed are only forbidden when this is the case for the whole Blender (userpref setting). Thanks for the report.%%%
