I can't use the Preview Animation function in the file menu of AnimeStudio 10.1. Anime Studio just crashes immediately when I select it and I get the Windows error that the program isn't responding. :( Using Windows 7 SP1, 64 bit. ATI Radeon 4800 video card. I've updated my video drivers but no joy....

Just noticed that a load of Version 10 tutorials have been uploaded to YouTube on the SmithMicro Graphics Channel.

Some very interesting new features.
:0)

Some requests for the writers of this great software which I use every day for my animation work. :0) Keyframe Editing One of the new features of 9.0/9.5 is multiple keyframe editing. I can see the benefit of it but I don't use it myself, it's something that should really be an option to give more f...

Use the shape select tool to select the head shape, uncheck the Stroke option in the style pallete and you'll be left with the filled shape drawn over the original black lines. While the shape is still selected, go to the Draw menu and select 'lower to back', the fill will then go below those origin...

Interesting question and a thing I never thought of. I use the original magnet and selection tool that came with Anime Studio but use the scripted transform tool that's part of Fazek's tools.

Interesting question and could be the culprit. Have to look a that, cheers Vagabond.

It doesn't happen every time I manipulate points, only sometimes so you probably won't be able to recreate it - but I appreciate you having a look at it. I'm just curious if anyone else has come across this.

Yes I installed the 6.2 update straight away after buying it. I know about the preference as well. It's a really odd problem, the buttons on the timeline become unclickable and the timeline scrollbar too, can't select keyframes either although I can drag the timeline indicator. I can access the menu...

I'm having a problem at the moment in V6 AS Pro (Windows) with the timeline buttons and keyboard commands regularly stopping working. It usually happens after vector point manipulation. Happening about a dozen times a day and requires a program restart to sort it. Been happening ever since purchasin...

Sounds like you're still drawing with the autostroke option switched on. If you're creating shapes out of many freehand strokes, something I do myself, the shape remembers the individual lines (to no apparent benefit that I can see) which then means if you're deleting these lines afterwards you need...

Hey 92453, I had the same thing happening. Look at this thread. http://www.lostmarble.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17408 It's happening because you're drawing with the auto-stroke option switched on. Creating the solid object creates a duplicate line that sits over the original line. Very frustrating u...

I'll try that Slowtiger. I do like to see a solid line after I've drawn it but I will give it a go and see, thanks.

Funksmaname, I had a look at your intermediate shape stacking technique clip, very interesting, I'll definitely look at that further. Very useful and clever stuff too.

Thanks for the responses. It's very interesting that this doesn't appear to be a common complaint.... :o Slowtiger: I have the autoweld and autostroke options selected. I never use autoclose or autofill. Sbtamu: I create the shape, then select it and press the spacebar to create the object. I never ...

Hi guys, Been using Anime Studio for a couple of years now. Using it to produce a cartoon series for BBC TV. Really like using it but have a few niggles with it, one of which I'd appreciate some feedback on. I'm currently on version 6 and am looking to upgrade soon, very curious to know if this issu...
