hello,

i am having trouble opening a file that has been created in anime studio.

my error report states:

unknown keyword: what at line 108

can you help?

Posting the file will help enormously.

hello mkelly,

where can i post the file? may i email it to you?

The file may have gotten corrupted during a save.

Another thing that causes trouble is using "special characters" in names of layers or in notes fields.

If you type quotes or [] or things like that I think, in a notes layer it interferes with the reading of the AS file. AS thinks that character is part of the code.

See the file would help. Also if you have a text editor that displays line numbers you can check line 108 of the file yourself to see what "what" is.

in AS 5.5 I could use á, é, í, ó, ú, ñ, etc.
AS 5.6 doesn't recognize anyone of this characters. When a imported file (as an image, 3d object or sound) AS use it fine, but when I reopen the file, all this files are lost.
I know it has not much to do in this topic, but I had to say it somewhere!.

Feel free to email it to me if you want (mike at kelleytown dot com) but if you have a website you can park it at you can include a reference here for others to see.

I suspect it will be a simple matter of a corrupt or incorrect name as others have suggested -- I've fixed a few of these in the past (one thing we noticed was that European commas, used to express decimals, are a no-no in AS).

hi mike,

i sent the file to you this morning. the email is titled 'anime studio file'. thank you for looking into this.

Yeah, I fixed it and sent it back to you.

It was indeed a filename with doublequotes in it -- changing it to single quotes solved the problem.
