Re: One thing you'll have to add to this is to look through the VERY long list of X-Plane functions you can attach to each animation

Yes, that part I've gotten pretty familiar with. As Mid7night mentions in his video, you can type in a key word to see only the datarefs that have that word.

I've seen the tutorial you mention. For some reason, even though I have the Quicktime plugin, I cannot access the videos where there are Quicktime icons. Besides, that tutorial seems to focus mostly on rotations, unless I missed something. I've gotten a handle on rotations; it's translations I need help with.

Anyone know of any other videos, or what about translations is different from rotations? I discovered how to stretch out a line that would seem to be for a straight-line translation, but I can't make it work with the animation slider the way I was able to preview a rotation.
