I don't see any way to view films in AH2. Is  it there and I just can't see it?

Yes.  Look in your AH2 folder for the Film Viewer - ahfilm.exe.  ;)

I can't get icons to show on my viewer. I looked in HELP & it said to check the show icon box but the box is covered up & I can't figure out how to get to it.
 How do you do it?   :o

Not sure what you mean by the box is covered up?  Here is a view of the top left-hand-side of my film viewer showing the Icons box:

Thats what I see on the help file but my viewer has the whole right side covered with sliders for distance zoom, Field of view zoom as well as a large box that says player, country, model, range.
 Also has buttons for capture, edit text/voice   append films, save as avi.

 I don't know how to uncover the icons box that I need to check :confused:

so you saying you don't see the icon check box beside (left side of) "Start Select"

when you are viewing the AH2 film viewer (not the help file)

if this is the case what resloution you running? may try to increase your resolution to a higher setting to see if it stretches out the viewer. just a thought.

Make sure you're running it in 1024 x768 resolution. Some boxes get get covered up in lower resolutions - I guess thats gota be fixed.

I just upgraded to a 19" monitor from a 17" & now the box to check for icons is uncovered. The right half of the window isn't over the check box anymore.
  I wonder if other persons with 17" monitors are having the same prob?
 Anyhow thanks for the help.     :)

I think its more likely screen resolution.  My monitor is only a 15" but I have no problem seeing everything.  Glad you got it sorted, anyway.  :)
