Title: Camera modifier to quadmenu
Post by: LKEdesign on 2014-07-22, 18:01:46

I don't know it this feature request has been made ealier, I haven't been able to find anything about it.
In a matter of convenience, I would like that the Corona camera modifier could be added to the quad-menu along with the Camera Correction Modifier. Apparently the modfier is not "public", - I can't find it in the command list so I can add it myself.

Thanks in advance

Here you go ;) Save it as a .mcr and put it in your usermacros folder.

Code: [Select]

macroScript Apply_CoronaCameraMod
category: "Corona Renderer"
(
for o in selection where superclassof o == camera do(
addmodifier o (CoronaCamMod())
)
)

I did, and I liked it, but houdini targets a different group of users than what I have to do on daily business. For example: simple modelling is not what houdini is built for ;-)

DeadClown, as I suggested to Ondra, I think it will be useful to create an official Corona toolbar+icon, with all the stuff (CoronaLight, camera, proxy etc..) with macro for shortcut. VRay does that, after 12 year!! ;-)

If people really want that (and the developers of course) I don't see a reason not to do this. Afaik, macros for all the most used scripts are planned anyways (proxies, mat converter, etc), so a toolbar would be possible. I don't like any automatic toolbars and menu stuff etc but that's just my personal preference.

Me too. But we can have a Macro+Icon for proxies, mat converter, etc. And the user can create by himself the toolbar. BTW, a default toolbar can be useful for newbie.
