Hi ho! I have a few questions before I buy the software. They might not be that clever, but I didn't find the information elsewhere.

* When I save a sequence of PNG's, will the background be solid-coloured (for example white), or will the alpha channel be used?

* I'm planning to buy the boxed copy. Are there any "surprises" like online activation, usb dongle, or copy protection software? I'm very concerned about this, because the last time I bought a software rompler (by E-MU), it required some copy protection software to constantly run in the background - not to mention that it even wrote to the boot sector of the hard drive. I just want to make sure that this doesn't happen with Anime Studio too.

i believe there is no hardcopy of a manual. so you will just be buying a box and a disk.

if you are outside of the united states, i don't think it would be wise to order a box copy, unless you collect boxes.

Okey.

Anyways, what do you know about the two questions in my post?

Copy protection: Your serial number, that's all.

PNGs: You can export them with or without transparency.

When export to PNG sequence you export it with alpha automatically (Almost in linux version that is the one I have...). On the other hand jpeg exports with the background of the project.

Oh! please tell me how disable transparency...

Great! Then I guess I'll get this product

Genete: I just have the whole project area covered with something ... I don't care about those 30% bigger file size since PNG is just an intermediate format for me.

I see. I do that also. But I thought there were any hidden way to stablish the background of the PNG like the project background like JPEG does.
