Okay, I have a few questions for you. #1. I am using Imagine 2.0 on the PC and the Amiga. I have just started with the PC version. I am running DOS6, emm386.exe not in use, dblspace in use. Computer is 486-33 clone. Problem: After a session of rendering with Imagine, I shut off the computer at the dos prompt after making sure nothing else was going on. This morning when I booted up, I got a CVF file error. It turned out that Imagine when it wrote to disk managed to cross link my files. BTW, this is the first problem I have had with dos6 and doublespace and I have been running it since it came out, even with the ever troublesome Autodesk 3D Studio. #2. I have been reading about everyone getting upgrade notices, but I have not seen anything yet. Today is 7/27/93 and it was not in today's mail. #3. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to get objects to move in the stage/action editors. I move an object in the first frame; click on "ok", save changes, go to do a wireframe in the stage editor and the object I thought I had moved is back in its original position… I have sought in vain in the absolutely whacky manual for how to fix this. Any help for me?

If you have more than one frame, you need to type the position of the object into the position bar in the action editor. Saving a new position in the stage editor will only change the position in the last frame. Delete the position bar in the action editor, then add a new one. I think you have to actually type in the position, but you could try deleting the position bar and then saving in the stage editor.

Thanks, John. I saved the answer to disk. Slowly but surely I am getting the hang of it.
