Title: The bar at the bottom left behaves differently than I remember
Post by: fromsoysauce on December 28, 2016, 05:47:59 pm

I remember the bar at the bottom left displaying the name of the tool as well as the hot key for it when hovering over tools. It doesn't do that now. I even tried re-downloading it from the main page as well as the build listed in the forum, no dice.

While I don't personally need the hotkeys, I was going to mention it as a useful tool in my tutorial series. Does anyone know how I can get it to pop back up again?

Click on the Options->ToolTips menu item to enable Tool Tips. Sometimes Anim8or turns it off when running different versions. I haven't been able to find the cause, but then I haven't looked too hard :)

Thanks Steve, I probably miss-clicked it at some point when trying to check the "info"

So , what about those tutoial series you mentioned? Have you started them at all? Do some  of them exist? Whould be interesting to see some from so good, advanced Anim8or user as you are.

I've done a bit of research on it, as I've been giving private tutoring to students as a case-study to see what kinds of explanations are more effective. But otherwise I have been working on things to give the video series more production value, like having it expressed as a cartoon itself.

In the past I used to make some ultra-steamline quick tutorials, but according to the feedback, while it was an effective video series, people complained that it was a bit robotic and maybe a bit too fast paced. Soo for my new series I want to make it a more fun- light hearted cute series that, maybe can even stand on it's own as entertainment if your not super into learning the techniques.
