nikosgr00 Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hi, is there any way to make a flipbook and print out the current time through vcomment? I want to save the sequences and remember the simulation time. I found a python script that gives me the system time, but I cant use getattrib or detail in viewport comment. any idea Please???, Thank you Nikos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atom Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 You could parent a font object to the camera and use it to create a custom overlay. Paste this code into the font text field. `system("date +%X")` Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikosgr00 Posted June 12, 2018 Author Share Posted June 12, 2018 Thank you Atom, I had found this command in the forum but I couldn't make it work what I'm doing wrong? I also tried to export file sequence with this ->$LT Local time - not including stretch or offset<- in the file name... No luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikosgr00 Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 I upload a file with a solution, but I still want to learn if there is a simpler solution than python and two nodes, like Atom solution, only one line... I dont know how to replicate Atom solution :(. flipbook_with_time_python.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
