If you're referring to Windows95, this is a _must have_ upgrade. Whatever
you've heard, let me tell you that it is nothing less than _AWESOME_. For the
timid, you can always 'dual boot', but I'm telling ya', once you use '95, 3.11
will look (and feel) like a crusty old antique! No comparison, IMHO.
>>when I try to explode a word, it looks like it's exploding at the ends rather
than from the middle of the text. Is this because it's a hierarchy object?<<
Exploder will only work on single objects (currently), so the Hierarchy is a
non-issue in you situation. The reason that the 'explosion' looks like it does
in your example is because Exploder 1.36 takes into account the location of the
objects axis… This is not documented because it really doesn't work correctly
yet… You will get funky looking results if the axis is off center relative
to the object… If you move the axis below the object, the object _should_
explode upwards, but as I mentioned, it's not fully functional…
Hope this helps,
Rob
