Hello Tom,

Hi all, we often have to round numbers in our scripts (or expressions). I usually use the Math.round() method to accomplish this, for example: x = 57.351245; alert(Math.round(x*100)/100); // 2-digit precision -> 57.35 Yesterday I've found an alternative way to round numbers with a defined precision:...

Hello Jorge,
nope, no way to retrieve selected vertex or vertices

that would be handy but you can't access this option with scripting

Of course, you can share info with other users.
Your first script is quite funny but bravo !
When more details about the txt format will be given, I could write the script for you.

salut Salvador, I think I can help you ... if you post a typical txt file (recognized by c4d) containing all properties you want to export. What should be written to specify POI, orientation (instead of "Point") ... As an example, select a 3D layer and apply the following script. Position ...

Hi Varangian, okay I take this one...I love masks :D the palette is probably not the most beautiful I've made :lol: but I hope this will be a bit useful... Colors are Yellow, Red, Green, Blue, Magenta, Orange and White, I didn't know exactly what colors fit to your needs for all types of maskMode......

Hi knubile,
i'm pretty sure that the equivalent of clicking on the stopwatch to deactivate all existing keyframes is not possible via a script.
To my knowledge the "best way" is the way you did it, i.e. a simple loop calling removeKey().

Hello Mylenium, thanks for the reply, I think I understood what you meant. I've found some good infos on the net about orientation/rotations, the way to represent/store them, usually using quaternions as you mention and others really interesting stuff -and complex as well- related to 3D game program...

Hello,
does someone know why we cannot apply the loopOut("continue") expression on the orientation property of a three-D layer ?
thanks !

I also got the same error... that's why I tried to specify an argument (an integer in my case). I've made my own experiments too ... just for fun I put this sourceText expression that mainly consists in a while loop and call the Date() function before/after the loop to get the 'running time'. i = 0;...

hello, could you (Dan) briefly explain how the Date( number ) method works in expressions ? if I write this expression for source text Date(0); I get the current date and time and it updates as the comp time augments. if I replace '0' by any other number (10000000 for example), it doesn't seem to ch...

(sorry i wasn't at home...)
nope, i didn't download your project since i don't have v7.0
but the math behind your idea is similar to that used in the script : when you talk about "speed" the script deals with "derivatives"

Hi sebastien, it's not generally easy to determine the length of a bezier mask (formed by multiple bezier curves), but you can achieve it by decomposing all curves in infinitesimal segments. Then you simply have to compute the sum of the length of each segment to obtain the approximated total length...

For the entire comp duration, replace the line you mentioned by: should be ok
