Ok I'll just ask all of my questions here.

1. What I'm trying to do is to have a switch file with a front view, a side view, and a back view of my character but I really don't know how to do this. I have a bone layer called "Front view" but now how do I start drawing a back view of my character?

2. This is probably a question that gets asked a lot, but is there a way to save my character and use him in future projects?

3. How do I change the size of the stage? Whenever I go to project settings to switch the width and height it always changes back to- Width-788
and Height-768.

I am using AS6 debut btw.

-thanks, and sorry for the trouble.

but now how do I start drawing a back view of my character?

Take one friend, put him on back view and start drawing.

Whenever I go to project settings to switch the width and height it always changes back to- Width-88 and Height-768.

Wow! 88x768!! that's so narrow! I've never seen that behavior. Are you modifying the correct project setting?

Regarding to question #2, read the built in help. AnimeStudio Tutorials->Anime Studio Menus-> File Menu->Import
-G

Back view eh. Well, you just draw it I guess.

2. Sure. Save him as CHARACTER.ANME then in your next project go to FILE > IMPORT > ANIME STUDIO OBJECT and select the CHARACTER.ANME file and import it.

3.That is weird. You going to FILE > PROJECT SETTINGS? Then change it and go OK. Don't be clicking save defaults of restore defaults or anything. Sounds weird though.

Sorry I meant 788 for the height. xD

I put in the height and width I want, but when I click ok, it goes back to 788 and 768 >.<

Also if I start drawing the back part of my character, the front view is still on the stage so do I just draw the back view with the front view on the stage?

And thanks I think I'll be able to save my character now

Maybe you're entering the dimensions you want and then clicking on PAL or something, which means it goes back to those dimensions. Just enter the dimensions and click OK.

Draw your character in back view on a new layer, with or without the side/front view visible. Then drag the back view into the SWITCH layer, above the bone layer you currently have there. Now you can only have the side or back view showing at once.

Hope that helps.

Ok all my orblems have been solved except for the project settings one. Whats the largest size the height and width can be? Well I made a video so you can see what happens. When I switch the settings and click ok, it goes back to 788 and 768. [url] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsBkKcwk06U

Yeah, for AS Debut, that's the largest the export can be.

but when I open AS, (Thorn comes up as the character) the width is 960.

It can open, edit and save larger resolutions. But you can't set a larger resolution as the default project setting.
