Hi all you animation-folks! I'm in deep trouble!! I've now reached the point where I really want to try to animate something in Vue 4 and where to start??....the manual, of course. I've done the first 4-5 tuts and it went OK (Disney is NOT going to hire me!) Now I'm trying to do the animated fish tutorial....it has pivots, that sort of holds the fish together, and I'm supposed to place the pivots on neighbouring mesh, if you see what I mean.....but my fish is literally falling apart!!! How do I get the pivots to be where they are supposed to??? Please help me!!!

Show pivots first then drag the little white box to the location you want

Thanks Robot - but how precisely do I do that?? - I use the top view, but the fish still gets divided....If I copy and paste it as I'm supposed to in the last segment of the tut the new fish is even worse looking.....could't even get a fishmonger to sell it!! :-)

Make sure you're on the first frame of the animation or else you will animate the pivot position. I would use a side view. I'm trying to install Pro right noww or I would open it and see where your at. Give me some time and I'll look again at the tut bot

Thanks a lot! I'll go try using the side view! -pixpax
