Hi,

How about if you receive this message, and are not trying to adjust anything? I’m just trying to composite a C4D layer with other elements. The settings match, but I’m unable to see the C4D layer and just receive this message.

Thanks –
Tom

Thanks — I will try that out. It looks like I’ve gotten the result I was going for by using the Inheritance Effector, and turning off the Rotation.

Thanks for the reply! I’m actually only using the Cloner so that I can utilize MoGraph with my sphere (I set the copies to “1.” Perhaps there’s a better way — but this part works!) I did make the plane a child of the sphere, and yes, it does everything the sphere does. If I make the plane a sibling of the sphere in the cloner object (beneath the sphere) it disappears from view (perhaps the cloner can only affect 1 object at a time?) And putting it elsewhere in the object manager doesn’t give it the properties of the sphere’s motion, of course.

(I’m also trying to see if the “Inheritance Effector” has anything to offer — I noticed it has an option to transfer position, but not rotation. There may be something there, but so far I’m unable to get it to transfer any attributes to the plane.)

Any more thoughts are welcome! Thanks again.

Great – Thanks!
