I can give the last two.

Thanks Steve.

It's not grayed out for me either. I tried it but it looked weird after I did it on a figure. I'm gonna' wait until it's fully working before messing around with it.

Is it possible to insert time between two keys in scene mode.
Basically what happened is I had a scene where you see a guy walk in and sit down. Now I want to show the room around a bit before he walks in. To do that I would have to add extra time at the beginning of the scene. To add time would be a tedious job of making the scene time longer, copying and pasting all the keys, and making sure they were pasted correctly and evenly.
Does anyone know of any way that I could do that.
If this isn't a feature yet, I would recommend it would be a little handy tool.

I'm wondering though how is it that 720 x 576 is the rate if that sounds like low quality.
I always thought high quality would be like 1024 x 768. or something like that. Higher than 720x576.
Now what if I would want to not burn it to a DVD, but keep it on my computer. I've tried watching uncompressed renders, and they are always slow and about 100-500 megabytes depending on the video length.
How could I get them to play normally, but not lose quality.

Adding Faces

Once you have added new edges to a mesh, you will be able to fill in the gaps with new faces. You do this by first selecting all of the edges that surround where your new face or faces will go. Then you use the Edit->FillHoles command to fill them.

There are a few things to note before you start adding faces:

    * Faces can only be added to complete connected loops of edges. If there are any gaps, no face will be added.

    * All edges in the loop must not already be part of two (or more) faces. Only edges that are part of at most one face will be considered. You can tell how many edges an edge participates in by its color when selected.

    * You can select a lot of edges and do a fill of the whole batch at once. Anim8or will start by filling any selected edge loops of length 3. Then it will fill those of length 4, etc. until no more faces can be added. This will sometimes create undesirable results and you will have to try again in smaller batches.

    * You may have to apply the Edit->FlipNormals and the Edit->FixNormals commands to orient new faces properly after they are added.

   


So you may have to delete some faces in your mesh before you can add the new ones you need to add.



This limits your ability to make stuff alot. Why is this rule needed. Is it because of a memory issue with anim8or, or just that's how the system was created? The fact that edges can only be attached to a certain amount of faces limits your control over stuff like complicated buildings, models, charechtars, ect. So what's the point of it.

If I render my scene as a .jpg or .bmp, what program can I use to put the frames into a movie that way I can view each individual frame and watch it as a movie.
Thanks in advance.
