Thought I would comment on this thread since it's related and maybe get a bit of insight.
I do lots of work of importing 2d images and creating attributes from maps.
Direct grid to the images resolution, and then work on some image wrangling for the end result.
When I go do a set up in LOPs, I can set up Karma with the ‘same’ resolution, i.e. if the original image was 1280 x 720, I can use those same values in Karma.
However with a camera (in Lops), set to Orthographic projection, I always have to increase the aspect ratio by order of 10, e.g.
The above ratio of 1280 x 720 has to be changed to 12800 x 7200.
And this doesn't match the grid system of viewport.(LOPs cameras being 10x smaller than).
It's not really an issue at all which is why I haven't put in an RFE,(would be nice though)
but is there a reason why the LOP cameras Horizontal and Vertical Aperatures couldn't be set to work at 10x the current values for each component?

Hi. OK I have another probably easy question to answer. How to I de-sync my two stage node views in the bottom right. I want to be able to dive inside the sopcreate in one of them to be able to alter things while keeping the other one to top level view. Right now if I do that both views go inside the sopcreate and I loos the camera view I am looking through. Best Mark
Edit: oww that is odd. If I click on the right hand one it stays totaly in sync. If I click on the left one I can de-sync it. Using Houdini 18.0.348 Windows 10.
