Hi all,

Just a topic for request an internal Camera Patch.

with the camera Catalog, it's now easy to control it with a desk and record snapshots.

But, in my opinion it should be easier if camera movement are independent.
i.e : If we have a tool IN Capture to choose camera position order, damped type, time, curvature.
Put this Cuelist on a Tab, press play and Capture will simulate the path internaly in the sofware could save a lot of time on programing renders.
Thank you to have a look.

Jo

Having the camera positions available from the console is actiually quite convenient. (I always make a separate cuelist to choose camerapositions independently of my light cues)

Ok,

And How do you put your lighting on an train, a bus or a plane to continue your work ?
This Feature is and Idea to have the most function only on one sofware to work quicly and more efficienttly.

I personnaly run my console software on the same laptop as I run Capture while I am on the go. If not I use the camera shortcuts (Command+5 through 9) to switch camera positions. The only thing you are missing then is the smooth transitions.

Hey,

I guess you're not understand the goal of the request :

Save time and simplify external connections to male renders and send it.
Just as a comparaison, (I don't like to do this but), WYSIWYG as this camera patch tool, and you save a lot a time because it's internal.
The Capture tool should be linked to camera positions catalog, that's could be  easy and powerfull.
