      Is it possible to start a new thread or category for asking "how to" questions for Animator. I think I have recently learned a lot of very useful information, but I still have a number of questions that I have not been able to find answers to. Yes, I can do a lot of testing but there are topics where other users might be able to provide good feedback/advice for.

        I am suddenly getting a message that my license expired on 23 Jan 2026 and I do not know how to update/get it working again. Right now I cannot use Animator.

          I am suddenly having a problem generating a video. When I click on the link to generate a video, nothing is happening.

          Here is the file I am trying to use to generate a video. Hope someone can either generate a video for me, or look at my file and tell me what is happening.

            Can you open the Ruby console.

                  When you report a Ruby error, please copy the text in the Ruby console from the Error line and paste it as text here in the forum. This screenshot can be exploited.

                    There was no error message so I shared what I saw. I fully understand what you are saying though. πŸ‘

                    Any idea why I am not getting a video though?

                      Yes there is an error as shown in your screenshot.

                      9bcdd0b2-89ce-4e93-88af-472434e082fa-image.png

                      Simply, I miss the beginning of the error message.

                      By the way resize to lower part of the console to the minimum (one line). The upper part is for the display of messages.
