Hi Dave, Do you know of a way to save a PCX file out of AniPro? NUMPIC can do this, so I figured AniPro must be able to do it internally – however I could not find the command to do it. Running NUMPIC to save a single file is a bit of overkill. Thanks, Mark

"Do you know of a way to save a PCX file out of AniPro?" If you select PIC/Files to bring up the Files Panel, you will see that Picture is highlighted. Right click on Picture to see a scrolling list of file formats that AAPro supports. You can change the default save from GIF to PCX. Note: you can load any of these file types from the Pic/Files/Load command by selecting the "*.*" wildcard. AAPro can load JPEG, TGA, GIF, PCX, etc. without having to go back and right click on the Picture dialogue box.

I couldn't find an easy way right off You want to save single frame as a .PCX out of multi frame .FLC, right? the thing that is doing work (in NUMPIC) is PCX.PDR – located in resource directory I think. some things that could work are: 1.- bugger up NUMPIC code to do current frame only 2. start from scratch to make a custom POCO 3. delete extra frame on either side of frame you want to save & run NUMPIC 4. run Numpic and delete extra PCXs 5. Save Frame as GIF – get out and run ANICONV 6. use HIJACK – or other program I think that covers most of semi reasonable alternitves any money in this? <g> #2 will take most time I suspect by the by – hows work? any hot leads & hot projects? Things are sort of slow up here. Dr dave
