I mean if you have a mesh you could for example have a tiger, selecting the faces around his neck to move and rotate his neck. ;) (not well explained)

Well, if you did it like that the rest of the head wouldn't move and would look weird, that's why you have the Figure Editor, and the Sequence Editor.

Like Tanzim said, in order to perform non mesh operations, you need to mess around in figure mode. It allows you to assign certain meshes to certain bones, the mesh is tied to the bone and nothing else (Which allows the operation you desired to occur by rotating the bone).

2 suggestions:

1. Would it be possible to have the selected object/bone/camera etc. propeties in a toolbar on the right, which can be changed without having to doubleclick the  object.

2. For a future release it would be nice if rendering could be done on the GPU as well as CPU.

I'm kind of new here, but I agree about having a
lasso tool for precision point selection... even if it
is in an ASL-based plug-in.

i like morph sliders.they make things more realistic and there is more instances of not moving to the predetermined morph. what i'm attempting to say is that it would be alot easier to give the object more fluidity,when you view the morph changing in real time.

I don't know if it was already said (this topic is so long !) but it will be very nice if we could load a whole folder of textures, or several textures in one time ! As one by one is so boring... That's all :)

I recently had the same idea since I'm using a number of textures over and over again in my big project and having the ability to create a materials library would make things easier. But ...

It would also mean that Anim8or would have to be initially installed in a directory that it recognizes so that it knows where to look by default instead of now us having the ability to assign directories for each project.

It could be a parameter that can be saved as part of an individual project.
