Although I have been very pleased with my upgrade to Animator Pro, I have been unable to find any reference for importing .sld or .rnd files from Autocad and Autoshade. With the old Animator product we were using the Flimaker utility with a great deal of success. Is there a new Flcmaker out there that will serve the same purpose??

Tom, Take a look at the Numpic function under the POCO menu. This is what you're looking for. It imports numerically sequenced images, including but not limited to .TGA (Targa). Kevin Krell – Computer Support Associates

You can right click on the PICTURE button in the files panel to access the .sld loading feature. And there's a utility in the forum here called RND2TGA which will convert your RND files into TGA files. You can then load the TGA's directly into AAPro with Numpic as Kevin suggested. – G

Actually, although it's not documented (long story), you don't even need to right-click on the Picture button. You can directly load an .sld file by specifying the full filename plus extension in the file selector. (Same with other filetypes, such as .tif and .pcx.) Only the Numpic.poc program will let you load .tga files, tho. – Jack
