hi rick,
i think, you missunderstood me:
i don't want to type in mathematical functions in moray. if you want to
do this, you really better do it in pov.
i don't want xanders plugin to write out one pov-file with all
animation-infos.
what i want is: going away from quantizing the animation-time
check this problem to understand what i mean:
you are doing an animation of a creature who is walking three steps
forward.
beginning with a 100-frame-animation you set the keys at frame nr. 0,
33, 67 and 100.
you see: the positions of the second and the third frame are a little
bit wrong (the exact positions are 33.333333.. and 66.666666..). with a
100-frame-animation, these errors are small and do not matter much. But
if you scale your animation-time later, these errrors are scaled, too.
and they do matter...

alex
