Guys,

Thank you very much for your kinds words of support.  It is encouraging to see
that this group is still supported.  I love Moray and registered a few years
ago and still use it from time to time.

Strange solution . . . . but i went out and bought myself a new high spec mouse.
.. . and then mannualy moved the key frames on the animation bar!  It didn't
actually take that long.  The new nmouse was more ergonomic, had programmable
buttons and made me feel a whole lot better!

Generally I work on short pieces of animation no longer than 10 seconds (mini
advert logo display size and so 300 frames is typical).

So when you've got a mundane job to do . . . . spend some money . . . feel good
and get on with it ha ha

anyway thanks a bundle!
