How to animate objects?

[stuh505]

Hello, I've drawn a simple animation, created an object, placed it on the screen.  I've made a script to move the object across the screen.  Now I want it to be animating while it's moving.  I've tried to do:

AnimateObject(0,BIRD,0,1);

to make it animate using the sequence of sprites in the view called "BIRD", but it gives me an error saying "object has not been assigned a view"

I dont see anywehre to assign it a view without making it a character

DOH!  found it

SetObjectView(3,14);

[..]

Lol... I would just have used the room interaction 'Start Object Animating' But then again im an idiot...
