Hi Brian, Happy New year to you too. Jonas referred my questions to you.
>>Hi Jonas, Happy New Year. I have two questions about the windows animation
player that you or one of your colleagues could answer. First, the RESIZE
WINDOW option only seems to work when I "open" an animation from the "file"
pull down menu. When I try to set up an icon using the command line arguement
for a flic or a script file all I get is the little window and it doesn't play
until you click on the > (play) button. What I want to do is set up an icon in
Windows that will simply play the script upon double click. Second, where
would I find a copy of the Windows Animation Player Manual?

Yes. when resize is active (has a check next to it) then whenever you OPEN an
animation, it will read the resolution and set the window to that resolution.
It will do nothing once an animation has been loaded.
<< What I want to do is set up an icon in Windows that will simply play the

In the program manager go to FILE/PROPERTIES and edit the command line for the
icon to add a "-r". for example:
COMMAND LINE: c:\aamex\AAWIN.EXE bball.fli -r
<<Second, where would I find a copy of the Windows Animation Player Manual?>>
Ships with Animator Pro, Animator, Multimedia Explorer, or Animation Support
Libraries. It is not available on-line.

Thanks for the info Brian. I must have the manual around here somewhere. I
know I have seen it. Sheesh, if I only had a brain.
