      Hello, like everyone else, I have the problem that Animator doesn't save my clip settings.
      I'm working on a Mac Book.
      I'll try it on a PC too.
      After searching through all the forums, I haven't found a solution.
      After pressing the Save All button, everything was gone the next time I opened it.
      It's actually a great tool and I wanted to use it with students, but it's getting difficult.

      Animator , Fredo, cant save

        @Just_us It is in Beta and there are quirks. I don't think Fredo has a way to export/import animation data but it would be a good option in these instances where you lose work.

        I find working in a series of files in smaller chunks less vulnerable to Beta quirks.

        Large, convoluted animations can throw up unwanted and unforeseen behaviours.

          Thank you for your answer. I was just confused because I watched Fredo's video and he explicitly mentioned the possibility of saving the animation data. As I understand it now, you can make an animation and just hope that Sketchup doesn't crash. I'll install the program on the PC again today. Maybe it will work better there and then I'll report back.

            I have just successfully installed Lib Fredo 6 and Animator as well as FFMpeg on the PC. The animator save function works perfectly on the PC. But not on the mac. On the one hand I am happy because the students work on PCs at school. On the other hand I prefer to work on the mac in my private life. My question to Fredo is whether he could take another look at it?
            Thanks for all your help
