New tsX (modeler plugin) : QuickCamera

Post by Emmanuel »

Well, it is not that new since I have it on my hard disks since a while :) But I think it has not been published on the web before.
So, here is a plugin made by Libor Stolc. A clic on the icon opens a menu that display the list of the cameras present in the scene ; a clic on one camera name makes it the active camera in the current view.

You may say, this can be done with Chikara's FindCamera plugin. That's true. But QuickCamera is faster since it saves you 3 clics (r-clic the icon to open the panel, select the camera, close the panel, l-clic the icon to change view).

The problem with QuickCamera is that the camera in use in the new view becomes the ACTIVE object. So if you are doing some Point Edition on an object, changing the view will exit the PE mode and you have to re-select the object. Libor never fixed that little issue, and I guess this is the reason why he never released this tool.

It may be a handy companion though, and a convenient plugin for your collections !
