"You need to toggle animatability by clicking on the key next to the check box (P7 manual, p.103)."

I am an idiot. Please forgive me.

I can hardly believe it. I have pointed my eyeballs at that key at least one million times. I have never "seen" it. Honest - the darn thing never registered its existence on my brain. That is the wierdest thing.

I know what those keys are for because I see and use them in the mat room all the time. I honestly didn't even know there was one next to the checkbox.

I'll go write and publish 10 new cool free shaders as atonement.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
