RailClone Pro (*) / Re: Gradually bend an array of bars along a path
« Last post by Michal Karmazín on June 24, 2025, 04:10:32 pm »Hi,
You can control the Z Fixed Scale value of the used Segment - and consequently its bending - by referencing the XSplineCoords.z attribute. Please find attached a sample scene (250624_RCXSplineCoordsSampleScene_ITOOSOFT.max). I hope this helps.

RailClone Pro (*) / Gradually bend an array of bars along a path
« Last post by FE2763 on June 24, 2025, 02:26:48 pm »hello there, i need help 
in the image you see two arrays of bars; one arc is composed by straight bars and the other by bending bars;
i need just one arc (path) which starts with straight bars, and gradually those bars bend in the middle (upper part) ;
do you have an hint or a tip to achieve that ?
thanks!

Forest Pro (*) / Re: Suggestions for Forest Pack Tips and Tricks tutorials
« Last post by John.McWaters on June 24, 2025, 03:23:13 am »For the 'Limit to visibility' option under Camera, I think it would be helpful to have an 'hourglass' option where the field of view (FOV) extends from the front of the camera and another that extends behind the camera (so it would look like in hourglass shape from above), with parameters for each that allow you to set clipping distances, etc. This would be helpful when dealing with FP objects that are in reflections behind the camera without also creating more FP objects to the side that only slow down orbiting, etc.

Upon reviewing the code, it appears that the previously mentioned "option_changed" event is not implemented in the current version of the Library Browser. It was inherited from an earlier version, but it is not currently in use. Thank you for your understanding.

As I am testing out options I am running into trouble triggering the "option_changed" event. Does this need the class of the changed option passed in somehow?

We have decided to remove the Spline > Roofing Operator from the final release due to some unresolved issues for which no reliable solution is currently available. However, we have not ruled out the possibility of revisiting this feature in future versions.
