Using Anim8or to build jousting arena. I created a picket for the railing and saved it. Then I created a simple pole for the top of the railing and saved it. Now I want to import the picket back in, multiply it and assemble the railing but Anim8or will not let me import both, it just keeps swapping the items. Also when I try to Scale the picket it doesn't seem to want to do anything? I've saved the pieces in both OBJ and anim8or native but unable to get anywere. (I know it's something simple)

Start Anim8tor.
File / New.
Import your first OBJ.
Select toolbar icons - Object viewpoint and Frame view.
Your object should now be visible.
then..
File / New.
Import your next OBJ.
Select toolbar icons - Object viewpoint and Frame view.
Your object should now be visible.
Select toolbar icons - object edit and select. Click cursor on object to select it.
Copy it (cntrl+c).
Switch back to your other window/file.
Paste.. (cntrl+v).
Both objects are now in the same window/file.
Hope this helps !
