what is parametric uv? Dec. 18, 2016, 7:31 a.m.

Hello,

artist trying to learn math here.

what is parametric uv?

is it describing coordinates using a function with two parameters u & v?

so it nothing to do with uv's (as in texturing)?

also does prim_attribute vex function find the point nearest to the parametric position (by distance?) to get its attribute?

thanks

My Experience with Houdiuni (A list of feature suggestions and bugs) Nov. 9, 2016, 11:05 a.m.

wow! thanks for your response. So helpful!

I will do the bug reports.

some hot key to flip between previous tool and current tool:
Sounds minor but surprisingly I use it all the time to flip between translate & rotate while posing character or selecting single face & edge loops while modelling for example. Just handy, not essential.

warning that auto takes is on:
sometimes i was forgetting i was in a sub take with auto takes setting nodes to hidden etc and recording it. In C4D with auto key on the window has a red outline to prevent you from accidentally auto keying a bunch of parameters. not essential, just an idea.

few extra bugs i noticed:
can't double click to file icon open file
viewport sometimes not update, have to open new scene view window
open file with another file open causes crash

Great about the other stuff, Dual Quaternion etc.. looking into it now.

Really like Houdini.

Thanks,

J
