Hello,

i've got a question about rendering Animations with Povray (Suse Linux
10.1).

I've tried to render an animation with:

$povray animation.ini +L./inc +W800 +H600 +A

and everything works ok, but after each frame povray asks me to click "on
the window" to render the next frame, which becomes quite annoying with
time.

My Question is now, how can I render the whole animation without "clicking"?

Thanks in Advance,
Philip

You might want to check if Pause_When_Done is set to on in your
ini files somewhere... or try -P

hmm, Pause_When_Done was set to on...sorry for beeing so blind...
but I tried with -D, worked as well :)

Thanks for the Help.
