Mark, Click on track info, then on the door. Copy the rotation keyframe at 0 (assuming there are no keyframes for the door between 0 and 49) to 49. This will keep the door in its original rotation until 49 and begin the rotation at 50. When the computer calculates the "tweens" between keyfames it uses the spline path in the key info dialogue box. From the track info window enter the key info dialogue box by clicking on keyinfo (at the bottom of the window) and then click on the rotation keyframe at 49. You will see a spline on the right. move the "cont" slider to 0 at frames 0 and 49. This will eliminate the wobbling you would see when you play back the animation at those frames. Good luck – be sure and go through the tutorials on track info and keyinfo. -Kevin McTiernan AAST
