Sorry for the late reply chaps. Thanks so much for all of your input, I really appreciate it. I'm sorted now after a meeting with the web people, I'm exporting (as Gai suggested) high res images via SU, TWR and TWR alpha mask and the web geeks are over the moon with that, so that's good enough for me. Thanks again.

Thanks Fraser, your reply was quite educative.

Yes, exactly. I used shorter pieces of animation with the combination of stills (for the transition effects) in this video (demonstrating "phases" of a Roman excavation site). Used only Windows Movie Maker for it. [flash=600,500:159ufj09]http://www.youtube.com/v/bKsEpF1Neh0[/flash:159ufj09]

Very nicely done.

Perfect, thank-you Thom.

Rather annoyingly though, you can't zoom in when using SV in GE anymore, it's still available via googlemaps though, so if you're wanting images for photo-texturing, you will need to do a screen print. Apparently the driving experience of the new GE is incompatible with zooming.

And they all lived happily ever after... Despite the carping twats that surrounded them...

Thanks Thom - batch file worked like a dream - startup time greatly reduced.

Thankys, Bryan. Tea + Biscuits are definitely missing!

Or just draw a short edge between a few of the edges on the flat top (not at the perimeter), select it and move upwards with Alt pressed. Use FlipEdge to fix the flat areas.

Just checked back, nice to see some more posts. Thanks, guys.

Thanks very much, Rich. I'll have a play.

I've found that on a Mac there can be multiple layers of processing on mouse events. The OS does one layer, the mouse driver does another layer, and the running app does another layer. These all need to align for the middle button and scroll wheel to behave as expected. For example, on my Mac I need to connect the mouse and then manually open the Microsoft Mouse item in System Preferences after a system reboot; it does not initialize unless I follow this sequence (yeah, I know, crappy mouse - but what I had available from a prior Windows box).
