Sounds odd, your property insp. should look sonething like this:
______
l _l
l l l
l-Member - Film loop - Cast- l
l l l l
l l l l
l l l l
l l l l
l l l l
l l l l
Click the Film loop tab..
Or try and make a new film loop.
Or even better... take control of the animation via Lingo! I always prefer
that.... it is not that much of a bother, create a list of the pictures to
animate, and then swich between the members by counting ticks. optionally
also create a list with the interval of the 'image swiching'.
This way you don't have to make a new film loop, if you need one more
picture, or to change the interval.

Subject: Re: <lingo-l> strange thing in the property window
on no!! I must have a freak version of director 8.5, there is nothing
clickable in my property inspector window. Basically I get a thumbnail of
the cast member; and like you say there is the drum like icon at the bottom
right corner of the thumbnail, but I can't click/select it, If I right click
on it, I get the options: copy thumbnail, past thumbnail or clear
thumbnail?!! there is also a help button which is greyed out/not active and
a view by list option button which is also greyed out/not active??
what's happening?
