Hi ,  
I’m having some trouble animating in Rhino, specifically using the Set Path Animation for some reason Rhino does not recognize this command. How can I fix this? I am running on V6 windows.

Thank you

Are you running V5 or V6?  
Mac or Windows?

You did not categorize your post.

Mac V5 does not have Animation tools.  
Windows Rhino does, and Mac V6 has them.

In Rhino Options \> Plug-ins, is the Animation Tool plug-in Enabled?  
If so, try right-mouse clicking on it and choose Load.

Now do you have the animation commands?
