    • RE: Scene animation with Animator

      I tested your Camera Positioing 6 model. No error and I can set any view.

      However, since I don't know what you want to achieve, it's difficult to help....

      Difficult to tell without seeing the model.
      Do you get errors in the Ruby console?

      @FlorinAp
      Thanks for signaling the problem which was inadvertedtly introduced with version v1.3b, only for the Section Box Outside. I have fxed it and will publish an update soon. It works fine for the Section Box Inside.

      Note that all plugins doing section box have to pile up a hierarchy of dummy groups to enclose the 6 section planes. However, there is no copy of the original geometry, but instance of it, so that any change in the section box mode is done on the original geometry. This is illustrated in the video:

      At least this is how it works in FredoSection, and most likely in Curic SectionBox (I don't know for SJSectionBox).

      Just create as many camera view as you like and place them along the timeline. Animator will interpolate the camera between them.

      Can you copy/paste the error message as text from the Ruby Console. The screenshot does not show the head of the error message.

      Also, always use the positioner (4th toolbar icon) to record the initial position of objects, precisely in case there are issues.

    • RE: Scene animation with Animator

      Scenes can be used in Animator for their camera. The interest versus setting the camera in Animator is that Animator will use the camera of the scene , which is controlled outside of Animator.

      However, for tags (layers) and visibility of objects, you need to use Visual Effects.

      FredoSection provides several tools dedicated to section planes:

      • Generation of section cut faces with hatching patterns at scale for section planes which are active in scenes. Patterns can be assigned by Container and/or by Tag
        b63f7c96-0923-4cf4-b54d-53ff11f516bd-image.png

      • Section box: create a configurable set of section planes (inside box, outside box, custom section line) for a selection of geometry.
        4e38ed57-155c-451d-90e7-e08b99f0280a-image.png

      • Door and window schedule: create a permanent companion model with selected views of doors and windows, which can then be mapped at scale in a Layout document. This will be released in a next version however.
        22970415-2c9b-40d6-8459-c4c57b9a8f8c-image.png

      • Pattern Manager: This tool is used to create / modify hatching patterns and assign them to groups and components to decorate their cut faces created by the other tools above. FredoSection comes with a set of built-in patterns, but you can create your own.
        d62bc2a3-4b82-4d51-be19-e95f00bb1db9-image.png

      FredoSection is mainly oriented to support a workflow Sketchup + Layout. It only works on Scenes. The hatching patterns are scaled by scene, so that they always appear at the same size when printed on paper. This requires that you assign a paper scale to each scene processed.
