Atom Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) I have drawn an open path in COPs using the RotoShape node. Now I want to reveal that line over time. What node do I use for the reveal? I can't seem to find the Carve node in COPs... Edited February 23, 2018 by Atom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toadstorm Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Animate another closed RotoShape as a mask? It's roto after all... I suppose if you really needed Carve you could try using a Trace SOP to grab your RotoShape and process that into a curve for carving, but getting the points filtered, merged and ordered correctly for that sounds like a real pain. You're probably better off just doing it the old-fashioned way by animating a mask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atom Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) I am trying to emulate After Effects, Fusion, Natron style open stroke reveal. I was hoping to get away with just drawing a single line then somehow cause the percentage of the line to grow over time (like carve). I wanted to test how robust Houdini COPs is at this time of H16.5. But my first task has stalled all progress.
