I have done those tutorials, but then when I'm stuck and can't remember where the heck I read about something, the first place I look is in the user's manual.

Thanks Parker!

Note to Smith Micro: It sure would help if those keyboard shortcuts were documented, either in the menu or the help file or both. I looked all over and couldn't find anything about them.

Thanks again,
Don

I took a short break from Anime Studio and when I came back to it I'm having to learn it all over again. I remember there was a key I could type to de-select all points, which is very useful, because sometimes it's very difficult to do when you're zoomed in. I'm used to programs which automatically ...

Mikdog, is this what you want? ;) http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k74/Genete/synfig/noise-outline.gif -G I'm not sure what Mikdog had in mind, but I would like the ability to make it slower, like change once every three or four frames. Are you animating the number of lines and other attributes th...

Is there a way to re-scale keyframes accurately?

EDIT: There seems to be some issues with "Rescale Animation" in AS v6.1. But all seems fine in AS v5.6. Yes, there is I have discovered. I tried it, and it appeared to work, but didn't exactly work correctly. The camera keyframes were scaled correctly to twice as long, however the charact...

Like I said, I think I can get After Effects to do this if I double the speed, but what really bugging me is how to get double the number of frames, true in-between frames to give me 60 fps. I tried setting the FPS to 60 and rendered out an image sequence. It gave me the same number of frames as I w...

Thanks, I didn't know about that, but I just tried that and it doesn't turn off all the other layers, just a few of them.

What is that meant to do?

I would like the ability to easily solo one layer while I'm working. Currently to do this I have to turn off each individual layer that I don't want to see. Then to return back to view all, I again have to go layer by layer to turn visibility on. This is a slow tedious process and slows down my work...

If this is a paid gig, you're best advised to follow the delivery guidelines of your customer or the specifications of your broadcaster. Usually they don't like anything they still have to convert in any direction. For worldwide marketing, HDTV 1980p 25fps seems to be the de-facto standard. For US ...

I don't want 24 fps. I'm doing standard NTSC video for a TV commercial. I was going to try doing the interlacing in After Effects. The broadcasting company would be able to play your 24 fps animation just fine. The have the equipment that would play it back fine over the broadcast. There's no need ...

Is there a way to scale the entire animation length? Since changing the FPS doesn't do it?

Yes, your sound would be off if you already started your project at a fps other then 60 fps. It best to start a new project at 60 fps. When you render at 60 fps, you then blend the upper lines of frame one with the lower lines of frame two and so forth. Giving you 60 fields per second and 30 frames...

Well, if you already started your animation, let's say at 24 fps, then change it to 60 fps... you'll have some issues. So it would be best to start new projects at 60 fps. How could that work right? the sound would not sync correctly when I speed it up. Usually, I work at 29.976 fps, for NTSC telev...
