loopyllama Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Hello, I am loading a .clip through a file chop. I have a bunch of channels named Camera01:tx Camera01:ty Camera01:tz etc. After the file chop I have a math chop that scales down the translate channels with this scope: Camera01:t? (this is not a question) When I load a new file chop like Camera02.clip, all of my channels are now Camera02:tx Camera02:ty Camera02:tz etc. I have to go back in the math chop and manually change the Camera01:t? to be Camera02:t? (still not a question) my question: is there any way to extract the Camera01 or Camera02 part from the .clip file in chops (like from a channel in the .clip file)? I am hoping to have my math chop scope looking something like: `MagicalExpression`:t? Thanks for reading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenong Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 You can use a wildcard for names too. So just use Camera0?:t? or Camera0*:t? Hope the above helps! Cheers! steven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malexander Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 You could also use a rename CHOP to rename the various camera numbers to something like "camera:t?", if you have a lot of CHOPs that scope the channels by name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
