      Does any body know how to create an animation of a shadow study, with text (i.e. like text on a leader) of the time that changes with the location of the shadow? You can see it change in the shadow setting box, but I want to make an animation and export it for a presentation. I tried to find a tutorial for this but couldn't. I don't care if it is 3d or 2d text, just a fluid change of the shadow corresponding to the time. Thanks guys for your help so far!

        If someone can't help you do this inside SU, you can always edit the avi files in Windows Movie Maker (included in XP), place text at the bottom with info of the time as a subtitle. Not as integrated, but will do the job, let you cut and paste the video, add music, and a movie title with credits. Also greatly reduces the size of the file and be played back on TV via a DVD or CD.

            I just bought the script and it produces a bug splat every time I try to use it... wasted money? If anybody can help it would be great 🤢

              PM to Tavi (TBD) about it. I'm pretty sure it's some kind of a konflict ith another script.

                it all depends on the codec used. try also uncompressed when exporting.
