hello all
First sorry for my poor English:)
three days since I am fighting with the shortcut.
I want to delete the paths in the plugin camerakeymaker with the shortcut ALT + DELETE
In the MAC OSX (ALT + DELETE) it's available only on onKeyUp and work fine
on the PC it's available on the onkeyDow AND onkeyup.
But in the pc it does not work correctly on onkeyup
onkeyup;
if ((key == VK_DELETE) && ((flags & VK_ALT) == VK_ALT))
p "OnKeyDown; DELETE PATH"
....
end
When I press (alt + delete) or (delete only) it pass in statement
do you can help me ???

Awesome feature - Thankyou!!
One question - forgive me if I missed it. How do I delete the Camera Key path so I can start from scratch?
Thank for reply Tiggz1
just delete path in background layers.

@tig said:
Using keys that might be mapped by others to do stuff [I already use Alt+Q to orient-faces] is a bad idea... use just modifiers like Alt or Cmd or Shift etc that can't be used as shortcuts otherwise...
Thank you for your reply TIG
Yes I do not know why I picked the keys complicated.

Hi,
Thanks for the plugin, it's very useful but i work on Mac, the plugin runs but there are problems:
- On Mac the keys combination (Alt+Q, ...) and the arrow keys don't works so you can't create the Camera Keys.
- The path to camera_path.html file is invalid and the file don't open when you push Enter key.
Only the first time that i ran the plugin i could create the camera keys (Ctrl+Q on Mac) but the next times no and when i pushed the Enter key this were the Console message:[attachment=0:2pn7yb90]<!-- ia0 -->Captura de pantalla 2011-04-13 a las 04.12.36.JPG<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:2pn7yb90]
I have translating the plugin to spanish language, when i finished it i'll upload it here.
Bye and i hope your help for fix these problems.
Thanks for reply Oxy
Sorry for Mac users.
I'll fix these bugs soon and contact you.

Would some other Bezier plugin work with this tool? If not, could this be causing the difficulty?
thank's mitCorb for reply
In the next major update (1.2) the file "bezier.rb" will no be required.
@dbalex said:
and I have no groups or layers in the scene, just a testscene with a simple cube.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Check if you have the file bezier.rb
The plugin has been tested on Sketchup v.7 and v.8 (pro or not)

It's a great plugin! I'm testing it right now but I'm trying to edit the path (in top or front view in parallel and perspective) and I can't select and move the points.. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm using sketchup 8 on windows 7
Thank's for your reply dbalex !
Strange thing!
Check your keyboard shortcuts if it already occupied by another tool (see above in the header of this post to shortcuts)
Check if you have groups or layers in your model.
sometimes when a key is published in conjunction with a group is selected that is problematic.
@tig said:
Excellent idea.
My only suggestion is that you put it in the 'Camera' menu rather than the 'Plugins' [I've already edited my version...]
Of course it's obvious
Thank's TIG

@gaieus said:
Yes, apparently very nice, smooth animations.
I wonder how they can be "translated" into 3rd party renderers' camera exporters (this is obviously not your task but of those who write them - hopefully it is feasible).
Yes it's possible.
I know that in LightWave the camera paths are stored in envelopes it's just a spline.

Just did a quick test and it's supersmooth.
Love it already.
Thank you very much Pixero
This plugin generates smooth animations based on a camera path (bezier spline). Camera keys are editable and saved within the drawing.
How to install: Unzip in Plugins folder.
Shortcuts:
Alt + Q : Add camera key / Update position of key (first press down. see below)
Down : Edit current key.
Left : Previous key.
Right : Next key.
Up : Preview animation.
Enter : Generate Scenes (pages)
Edit camera key mode is available only (top - right - left - front ) view.
Soon:
I want to add an effect to mimic the pitch of the airplane flight.
