Stoogefreaky Needs Help!!!

Post by stoogefreaky »

I have Anime Studio 5. Not the pro one.

How do I make the timeline continue on? It stops at the 72 frame.

Even I can help out with this one :) . You can set the number of frames in the "project settings" window (under the file menu I think). 72 just happens to be the default.

A quick shortcut is to hold down Alt and right click on the frame you want to be the new "end".

More technically, the "highlighted" blue area on the timeline is the selection of frames that play when you press the play button. You can set the starting frame with Alt+Leftclick or the ending frame with Alt+Rightclick. The actual number of frames doesn't change, just the point at which the animation starts and stops.

i don't know if this works fine in non pro AS, but if you put "0" instead of "72", the animation will not have limits.

Problem #2

Post by stoogefreaky »

:) I was thanking everyone.

Next Problem:
As I'm reading the tutorials, it asks me to open some tutorial projects. It seems that I don't have any of these unfinished projects it's asking. Is it because I don't have the pro version?

If you're on Windows, you'll probably find them at
C:\Program Files\e frontier\Anime Studio\Tutorials
