>> I guess you have not worked with other 2D applications, otherwise you would realize that the combination of that software, in conjunction with it's wonderful documentation, is the best on the PC so far at that price. Speaking of common sense.<< Actually, you are 100% correct. I have an original copy of Animator, and used Animator Pro at school. However, I have never seen the manuals for Pro, and it seems that much of the capability would be difficult to explore just by "poking around". From what I've seen of various flics in the libraries, Animator has more capability that I was ever led to believe. I doubt my instructor knew it could do some of the things I saw. To my knowledge, there are no aftermarket manuals for Animator, does anyone else know different? I'll still have access to the school's computers for another year and a half, so I can play with it there for awhile yet. >>I hear Animo has a 2D package for windows for about about $15,000. <G> << Yeah, I've heard of it too. Supposedly, it's very good. However, $15,000 is astronomical. – Michael J Sheldon "Falcon", msheldon@crl.com – When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary.
