Has anyone noticed instances where the Hide keys in the keyframer don't work? I'm trying to keep some text hidden until the last part of an animation. I've added hide keys at the beginning of the keyframe timeline and added another hide key (to toggle hide off) right before the text comes into frame. Right now, it doesn't hide the objects at all. I'm wondering if a) it has something to do with the zero key or b) it has something to do with earlier moving part of the animation with the World timeline or c) I have no idea what I'm doing- Any help would be greatly appreciated. Bruce

>> Has anyone noticed instances where the Hide keys in the keyframer don't work? No. Are they not hidden when rendered? After re-reading your post I notice that you say the text is not hidden _before_ it comes into frame. This leads me to think you are expecting the wireframe to be hidden in the KFer. This is not the case. It will only be hidden when rendered, previewed, or actually played (>>) in the KFer. Ralph
