    That's right.

    Where's your content? The plugin as I recall came with a few aniBlocks and they would be showing up in the lower left corner. Maybe the tab needs a little more height?

    There's also a free or free with purchase sample set in the free section of the store.

    thanks.

    here is what going on...

    if i ad two subtracks the object appears in the pane...

    but adding new objects by activating object in the scenetab and than click right does not work.

    the option is just not there

    if i make the mistake to fold the track in the animate pane it disappears and i have no access anymore

    it really feels as if the thing does not work properly

    would it make sence to uninstall and reinstall?

    it was installed with the daz4.6 installer and after purchasing the thing i just activated with my serial number

    thanks for help

    Un-Install and re-install is not a option to fix most errors. Notes: about AniMate, the Mini menu will only function properly if the tab is docked. The mini menu will not show properly if the interface is smaller than a two track display, even if you are only working on one track at the time.
    Any display smaller than this causes the mini menu to disappear.

    thanks...
    actually the pane was docked all the time

    but there might be something about the interface being to small...

    cause when i add 2 or 3 subttracks the maintrack does appear - from what i think right now...

    wicked programming!

    thanks

    Looking at your Image above, look at ZOOM!! Your zoomed in all the way. That is causing your interface to look odd at start. Zoom out Down and only Zoom in when needed to work.

    AniBlocks can be added to the active track by double clicking on them, or drag/drop.

    To get back any tab, Windows > Tabs > long list
    To get rid of any tab, Windows > Tabs > long list
    Just click on whichever one you want to add/remove.

    I had both the Timeline and AniMate2 docked together in 4.5 on the bottom.
    Little hard to get them docked properly back there again lol ... let's just say it's a little touchy.
    Do NOT drag it so low as to be 'unreachable' ... very hard to get it back.

    um, mine seems to in 4.5 work when not docked ... actually docking it is a problem.
    Made it large across the bottom, trying to get it to dock again, tried to close a side panel ....

    hehehehe ....

    "how to crash D/S"I got the info from GoFigure right in the Animation Forum. It does not work for all I guess. Just drag to Bottom and it will dock and size. I can close all my tabs with no errors. Wonder whats up with that on your PC?

    Who knows!

    At any rate when D/S was re-launched, everything is back in place and the timeline and animate are docked where they should be.
