I apologize if this went through more than once...

Hi Everyone,

I was hoping someone could give me a quick pointer with using ranimate.
 (or perhaps this is a case where I should be using ranimove?)

I have a building where I would like to make an animation of the sun
moving across the space.  It seems that if you have a static scene and a
dynamic view, then you use the OCTREE (say OCTREE= scene.oct) variable
in the ranfile while the view variable and file contains all the
different views (one per frame).  However in my case I would have a
static view and a dynamic octree.

Say I have sky files; sky1.rad sky2.rad ... skyN.rad

Then how would my ANIMATE variable look in the ranfile?  There is no
example in the man page.

ANIMATE= ???

If there is a more appropriate place to ask this type of question,
please let me know.  Thanks in advance if anyone can help out.
