There are two nice buttons on top of the animation editor next to the (Move) button. One says (Scale) the other says (Center).
I found nothing about them in the manuals, and a quick search on the board gave no results.
The contextual help says something very unusefull about the scale button, but nothing at all about the center button.
Anybody got them to work? I tried to do something with graphics, but maybe they are used with positions?

When you place a graphic on the screen it is usually to the right and down from where you would like it to be (at least in my experience). Click and hold on the center dot and move the dot in the direction you would like the picture to move. When you release the dot, the picture jumps to a new position. If it is an NPC, you want the feet on the center of the screen. I found this out by trial and error because my NPC showed up a little southeast of where it should.

My Doctor said I was having too much wine, women, and song - so I gave up singing because 2 out of 3 is not so bad.

Find those areas you missed the first time around. You'll want to explore those hidden areas now made accessible with Spells Expander.

Creating a working animation is n ot the problem 
I just want to know what these buttons are for. I would love to have a scale function. Right now I am creating three versions of every animation I have for different distances my player can have (times 6 for different perspectives).

That's what it is for, to move the graphic on the animation editor screen - not the playing screen. Perhaps I was not clear in my original post. ~RD

I do not understand this:
I am not talking about moving stuff.
I am talking about the (scale) and (center) buttons that do not seem to work. They are on the right of the (move) button. And that button does work.
