Hi everyone,

I found POVRay last night, and it's making a strange sort of sense to me.
However, I'm having some problems rendering.  I'm going through the
documentation and trying various snippets that I find in there, and I'm
currently working on the classic "red sphere".  When I first tried it, it
would render very dark, so I thought I would try moving the light source
around.  Now I can't render it at all.

The "Render 'sphere'" menu item is grayed out.  I can add the file to the
render queue, then start the queue, but POVRay brings the code window
forward and beeps at me, and no rendering takes place.

I have a feeling that POVRay doesn't know where my includes folder is.  In
the preferences window (Scenes tab), I specified the path to the folder:
"Dave's iBook:Applications:POV-Ray 3.6:include:", but I still can't render.

Any ideas on how to continue?

Thanks!

Dave
