Wonderful -- thanks very much for clearing that up.

I'm still a little sketchy on how the grouping/binding thing works but I'll work through more tutorials and figure it out eventually.

In the meantime, I'll stick with the 1-bone layer method! Thanks a bunch.

Can I tag along on this thread? It's been a while since I've used ASP, so I keep forgetting how the bone system works... Like in the original post, I saved out my character as a bunch of individual PNG files. Then I loaded them into separate layers in Anime Studio Pro 7, and then made a bone layer f...

Well speaking as a writer first (musician second, animator distant fourth)... I'd say that characters are not created by colours, designs, or voice talent- though all play a big part in bringing characters to life. Characters are ideas, created for the most part by writers or writer/animators. They ...

The 'frame range' appears to be the culprit. After a few more tests, exporting the entire animation worked just fine. But anytime I used a frame range, no sound. I believe this would qualify as a "bug", no? Is there somewhere I should email bug reports to? Or is this a 'known issue', or pi...

Hello Tim You have to import your sound file Files/Import/Soundtrack GC I've done that -- as I said above, I synced the animation to a .wav file (which I loaded into AS Pro). The sound plays back as I scrub through the animation, and the waveform shows up in the timeline. But when I export the anim...

No sound with Quicktime export?

I'm starting (again) to try and figure out AS Pro. I've got my animation synced to a .wav file, but when I export it as a quicktime, the audio isn't included. Any ideas why? Does audio not get included when you only export a frame range instead of the complete animation? And does anyone know why the...

You can set a "looping" area of the time line that won't effect the playback. On the mac you click on the gray top area of the time line with the CMD (command) key pressed to set the start point. The key frame should highlight with green. Then click on the gray time line area holding down...

Wow = thanks for the reply... though the news makes me a bit sad. I know all about audio editing (I'm a composer with a studio full of audio toys). But I'm kinda' surprised AS has this limitation, and doesn't let you set playback regions independently of the audio. Oh well. Guess I have to sync to t...

Keeping Soundtrack locked?

Hey - I'm new here, and not much of an animator... But I've been tinkering with this stuff for years and I'm really liking AnimeStudio Pro. But I've been having a problem getting my Soundtrack to stay put! Is this a bug, or am I missing something? I have a dialogue track about 2 minutes long. I impo...
