I mean Create the animation, Save it from within Animator (so blue disk turns gray) and check the Sketchup Undo label/tooltip.

By the way, could you type the folloiwng command in the Ruby Console:
Sketchup.active_model.path

This should return the file path name of the SKP or nothing.

Thanks

It's a little bit of a mystery!!

I think I have to send you a special version of Animator with traces to see what is going on.
Could you PM me your email address, as the rbz file is above the 2 Mb.

By the way, could you also check in Tools > Fredo6 Collection > Animator > Default_parameters.... that you have set up the auto-save.

Thank you very much

Autosave and confirm Temp exit both checked. Will send you a PM later on..

Thank you

Was this issue solved? My issue is similar. Movements and cameras I put in disappear when I re-open the file?

Nope, not yet... Current conclusion is my computer is "Haunted" and filled with Gremlins.. Ha ha ha ha ha

Hi Fredo! First of all thank you for this amazing plug in.
And hi forum!

I came back to a model I was working last night and there's nothing saved in the Animator-Clip Editor, but I think I probably didn't save it as I was very sleepy.

So if the clip settings are not in the Clip Editor that means that I didn't save it?
Or there is any way to find previous clips? Hopefully it's saved somewhere in a folder in my PC?

Many thanks!

All Animator information is saved within the model. So, if you retrieve a previous version or the last backup save (.skb), it should be there.
This assumes however that you did save the animation at some point.
