Colors Won't show

This is really really really hard to explain... so I did a little recording. (it's photobucket, don't freak)

I made something, saved it in whatever the default .anme or whatever extension it is, and next time I tried to open it, the colors are gone! The lines and the colors! And I can't get them to show! It did the same thing to me the other day, too, but that was just one layer and I just re-did it.

This time it's over twenty layers in a skeleton, and I spent hours on this. URGH.

Macbook - Leopard 10.5
Anime Studio 5 (the free version)

I have to say, I think that this was a really great promotional push for Anime Studio, because after enjoying this program I'm seriously considering buying AS 6 Pro as an (hopefully smaller) alternative to Adobe Flash.

But this is driving me nuts.

Could you please make your .anme file available for download so we could check the file?

Well, I don't know if this is the problem but I'l tell you what it LOOKS like -- it looks like you are trying to view evrything in "wireframe" mode. Maybe you inadvertently switched this on somehow? Click on the "Display Quality" box at bottom right and reset to "High". That's the first thing I'd try, anyway.

I can't find the Display Quality thing you're talking about, but that got me clicking around more and I realized that everything displays correctly on Frame 1. I can't imagine that I was working on Frame 1 this entire time instead of 0, but I suppose it's possible.

Thanks

Now that that's that, is there any way to move or copy the things from frame 1 to frame 0? I know I've tried it before but it didn't work.

Yes you can select all your keyframes at frame 1 and copy them to frame 0, if you position the time line at frame 0 and select the keyframes at frame 1 with your mouse it should work, remember though that the copy and paste function you should use is positioned on the top of the timeline, you should not use the ordinary ctrl c or ctrl v
