Hello everyone,
I'm using houdini to track some objects in a jpg sequence loaded as background and I want to know if it's possible to zoom what my camera sees like I do in Blender.
Blender has this nice feature that you can zoom the camera viewport like you do with an image: it doesn't change the perspective or whatever, it just zoom the viewport as it would be an image or like you zoom in an ortographic view.
I hope I was clear, thanks in advance.

You can zoom using spacebar+Alt key to do that.

Hey Ali, thanks a lot for this tip. Have been struggling with this!! Could you also add this tip to http://odforce.net/w...oku.php?id=gems ? Would be great if it was easy to find later on.

Cheers!

In Topic: getting the domainu attributes of a point

Yes,but this does not return me the parametric uv of the shape.

So what I mean is when you adjust the shape with a Basis sop it will give you a different parametric uv that affects the domain uv of a surface.

I understand now, but to run the straight skeleton on those things would be utterly overkill.
That thing is just a particular case caused by a too acute angle on the main (path) shape.
Or to beefy of a profile. A Schwarzenegger of a profile.
But it's an idea to be noted, maybe for further development.

In case of building roofs this is true. But I see this tool as being very useful as well for creating ornaments for example, where very thick ribbons could be required.
I wouldn't use it to create rooftops only.

Is this inspired on the work of Sven Havemann & Dieter W. Fellner Generative Modeling Language?

It is not these sections I'm talking about. It is what you can see in complex2.jpg when ribbon is thick it seems to intersect itself when you have strong curvature.
