Jeff Myler Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 I could use some help with animation. I want to rotate 3 triangles that have graphics on them. It will rotate to next facet of triangle to see a new graphic shared on 3 faces, then pause a bit, then rotate to 3rd graphic and pause. Repeat.... I can get the triangle to spin simply by dropping height spin from catalog, but then I can't seem to figure out the pause, and rotate to next graphic facet. Any advice appreciated from the Iron animation gang. It's like a rotating graphic billboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Drop three spin animations on it. Use the editor to space the timing to create the pause. So play 1 for 2 sec. Play nothing for 1, play 2 for 2 sec, etc. Cary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Myler Posted October 4, 2013 Author Share Posted October 4, 2013 Ok thanks. I'm starting to get it. Using Spin Wizard helped. Spin by 120 degrees for 2 seconds. Add key. Then pause and add another path (spin by 120). Thanks much. This will be cool with the graphics mapped on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Myler Posted October 8, 2013 Author Share Posted October 8, 2013 converted.wmvI exported a small 212w x 275h pixel size animation preview at 120 dpi and exported animation as full frame avi file. It opened fine in windows media player. However, when I do large file size final for presentation at 425 pixel x 550 at 150 dpi and render full frame avi overnight it will not open in windows media player. If I right click and choose to open this large avi file with quick time it plays fine. I had coworker convert the 105mb avi file in xilisoft to a wmv and resampled to 3mb for emailing customer. Is there a file size limit that causes it not to open in windows media player? Of the Ironcad compression format choices which would you recommend Micrsoft RLE? Microsoft Video1?, or intel IYUV codec? I have not exported with compression yet, as I was trying to get best quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronKevin Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Sounds like it could be a Windows Media Player bug. You can also use the free VLC media player, I haven't seen any problems with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
