      There is a difference when i play an animation in SU (automated step through the scenes) and when creating an avi with the export animation.
      Now, on each change of page i execute a script (based upon add_frame_change_observer) which can take some time to execute
      The script is started like this

      def frameChange(from_page, to_page, percent_done)
      if percent_done == 0.0
      start script
      end
      end
      

      I can imagine in some cases the script is not yet finished before percent_done is 1.0
      But i wonder why i have a difference in the result in Sketchup itself and the resulting movie.

      Do any of the movie options ahve anything to do with that?

      Thx again!

        Is it possible the video export does not work in the same way the animation in SU itself works?
        So no gotoscene x -execute script- gotoscene y
        but
        gotoscene x -gotoscene y - gotoscene z

          Can someone confirm this?
          I have an observer attached to my scenes which changes things in the scenes when the scenetab is clicked of the secen is selected in the scene-window.
          Now when i do Export-->Animation the changes are not shown in the resulting video
