  • adding points to spline/cam. paths?

    Posted by Espinoza on August 24, 2006 at 5:35 pm

    am still learning all the tools, is there a way to add points to a camera path? also, is there a tool that will allow me to grab a point in a spline and bezier just that point, with the bez. spline icon i get the bezier handles, but when i try to grab them my selector clicks off of the spline and its not selected anymore.

    thanks

    [espinoza] “how about a two point spline, how woul i add more points to is”

    to add points to an already existing spline use the Add Points tool

    [espinoza] “do i need to just start over with a bezier spline?”

    Well, to get bezier curves it has to be a Bezier spline but it doesn’t have to start that way, any spline can be converted from one kind to another by just changing it’s Type in the Attribute Manager.
