Hi Goodbloke.


You can copy the clip (the orange rectangle) and paste the copy right after the original. You can also add it to another track if you like.

The pic shows the icon to click, which opens the render to file window.

Animation frames are rendered out to individual frames, which you can then

compile into an AVI using a video editor (free or commercial).

Maybe I'm being unfair but I found this a really annoying thread to read. You come across as kind of demanding. No offense but have you ever thought about reading the manual or looking at the oodles of freely downloadable stuff - courses etc? People here are happy to help but sometimes its good to solve some of your own problems.


HINTS: Do you have the camera activated? Does your view screen roughly match the proportions of your output?

Render to File on the workspace renders from your current view - but you have to match the ratio of height to width in the window and in the render dialog. This was discussed in just another thread, just yesterday :)


If you have a window of 1000x500 and your render dialog says to render to 640x480 then what you get in your render will be different from what you see in your window, as they are not the same ratio of width to height - the cropping and zooming of the render will have changed. Just ensure that your 3D window is the same ratio as your final output, then what you see in your window will be what you get in your render.


HTH!
