Hi,
we make technical illustration and need every detail for mounting instructions ;o)
I have some selfmade tools in python to sort things by name - thanks for your idea!

Hey Detlef,
set this little icon to show or ghost other objects. This way you stay in OBJ transformation.
If it is set to hide other objects you dive inside the local space of the selected OBJ node.
Cheers

Hi,
a good idea but I have a lot of Objects I don't want to see/select in SOP-level.
I have some subnetworks on OBJ Level and inside a hundreds of object... came from CAD

bollili... thanks but if I select a subobject ist jumps into the SOP content.
You could use the pin-icon as well. This will lock the window to the current hierarchy level.

Hi and have a good new year,
I have objects on OBJ level under NULLs, changing the view to my needs.
Going into SOP level, I like to have the same perspective as in OBJ level, but the objects always are lost because they don't recognize the NULLs (That is logic ;o)
Any ideas?

Technical Discussion » Solaris / Karma import camera from obj

Hi,
starting with Karma I try to import my camera but it's not using the orthographic width of the original camera in obj-level.
On the other side I make a new camera on my stage and copy the parameter from my obj-camera to ma stage camera. Orthographic is working but I find the value for the ortho width only on the Karma tab greyed out.
Anyone has an idea?
Thanks for help

Hi,
havn't found an answer for that simple question that was easy in the old sweep sop.
One curve I want to sweep a line onto, but the second from three points should sweep along.
Thanks after 2 hours searching;o)

Hi,
I found a solution for me.
See attached picture and click “use SOP geometry” and it works, don't know if this is the best way. The hip file was too big and don't know if it is just a problem in my render environment.

Hello,
just start rendering a final picture in my network but no hair!
command: mantra -H server1,server2,server3
“Save Geometry Inline” is checked
“Initialize Simulation OPs” is checked
Can't find any solution, does anyone have any idea?
Rendering only local works and everything except the hair rendering is fine in my network.
Thanks for help!

Hi,
can't find a solution, Mantra says “No code generator available for: op:…”
making a new mat from scratch, copy the content to new GEO, but nothing solves the problem.
Sometimes there is also a problem that mantra can't delete ifd-files in the tmp directory.
Any ideas?

Hi,
reading tons of topics but can't find a solution.
Simple want to point all normals to outside of a grid. BTW I have other shapes but this is the simplest.
I have a shape (f.e. the grid)-> polyframe and use a point vop (transform matrix) to rotate them. Almost fine but why not all normal goes outside?
Thanks Detlef

Maybe I have a bad day?
As I remember, check “Unique Points” in the facet Sop brings me f.e. 4 polys from a rectangle? Or am I wrong?
Always the same point count if I check it on or off…
