Hey Christian,
This is either a huge co-incidence or we are probably born on the same date
and time... coz, i spent the full day yesterday to figure out exactly this
and was jumping for joy that i found the simplest and the easiest way to
stop animation and i started incorporating them into the jkwick and lavalamp
plugin that i was working on...
I just wish u saved me all the hardwork by sending this message on
wednesday....
Anyways, even though i thought i found the solution, i wasnt confident if
that was the right solution, but now u confirmed it, and thanks a ton.
When i whip out a small utility plugin outta this, i will be glad to add you
as co-author. ;-)
