3ds Max Animation :: Snapping IK To FK Script

Sep 14, 2012

I created this script to snap a three-bone IK chain to a three-bone FK chain. It works by first creating a line between the first and last bones in the IK chain, then it positions two point helpers (call them pointA and pointB) on the pivots of the second bone in the IK and FK chain.

Using the nearestPathParam function we can find a value (between 0 and 1) such that pointA and pointB lie on the normal plane to the straight line and then use the pathInterp function to translate the parameter into a position vector which we can use to position another helper (call it pointC) to then calculate the angle between (pointA - pointC) and (pointB - pointC). Sometimes the angle is calculated incorrectly, which is why I put an if-statement in towards the end to deal with this case; simply put a negative sign infront of the swivel angle.

(
local arrayIK = #($Bone_IK01, $Bone_IK02, $Bone_IK03),
arrayFK = #($Bone_FK01, $Bone_FK02, $Bone_FK03),
IKGoal = $'IK Chain001'
function snapIKFK IKarray FKarray =
(
IKGoal.transform.controller.swivelAngle = 0
[code].....

I'm not a good scripter, so the script looks a little clunky. I'm also having the problem that the script doesn't work when I try to activate it through a button press, it says "--Type error: Call needs function or class, got:

ButtonControl:snapIKFK".

Photoshop :: Snapping In PS CS3

Jun 20, 2009

If I put an outer stroke around an image, the guides won't snap to the edges of the stroke.  Instead, the guides will snap to the edge of the image.  How can I get the guides to snap to the edges of the stroke?

Photoshop :: Files Snapping Together In CS6?

Mar 24, 2013

How do I prevent files/photos from "snapping" together when I have multipul items open in photoshop CS6 at the same time and drag one close to another one. I work with a very messy screen and I like it that way. I HATE it when the 'snap' together.

CorelDRAW X5 :: Snapping To Outlines

Mar 29, 2011

How do I snap (objects or, especially, guidelines) to the outer edge of an outline? The guideline always snaps to the edge of the object, if the outline is behind, or within the outline if it's in front of the object.

I usually employ workarounds  such as converting the outline to an object but that's not always convenient.

3ds Max :: Snapping And Aligning Inaccuracy

Feb 11, 2011

I'm making a model of a building over a AutoCAD plan and I’m having problems with snapping and aligning. After I import polylines from AutoCAD, the accuracy becomes a problem, I can’t align or snap anything accurately (as seen on the attached picture). It keeps snapping in midd-air and not in the endpoint/midpoint, align doesn’t work either (the boxes in the picture are all aligned, x-max and y-min). I should mention that the same (similar) problem accrues in AutoCAD and after purging and repairing the dwg and starting over in max, it got better, but is still there.

Illustrator :: Disable ALL Snapping?

Mar 1, 2011

It seems there is no way to stop illustrator (CS5) from snapping to the edge of the artboard.  Even if you hide the artboard, it still snaps to the invisible artboard.
 
is it possible that the brilliant folks at adobe missed this one and there is no way to disable this snapping to the artboard?

Illustrator :: Objects Not Snapping Together

AutoCAD Architecture :: Snapping To Wall End

Apr 19, 2012

I used to be able to snap to the end of the linework that form the visual end or intersection of walls while grip dragging a wall of one style to another.  For example, using a wallstyle as a countertop, I'd be able to drag it to the corner of a room and use object snap to the intersection.  In ACA 2012, the object snap defaults to the justification plane of the wall even if that's not where the intersection snap is desired.

AutoCad 3D :: Snapping With Point Cloud

Jan 3, 2012

I am trying to trace part of my point cloud, which has been aligned according to a new UCS I set. Drawing on the top down view, a poly line works fine out in the black ether or the model space, however when I attempt to trace over the point cloud it shoots way off in the distance.

My node snapping is turned off of course, but this only happens when I click over a part of the point cloud, as if it was snapping to the cloud and getting confused.

When I turn snapping off completely I can click anywhere I want and I'm fine. This suggests to me that it is a snapping issue, although I was under the assumption that "Node" was the only snap setting that related to point clouds.

Xara :: Object Snapping Does Not Work?

Aug 8, 2011

My "Magic Snap"[magnetic object snapping] has vanished/stopped working. Turning the magnet icon on and off does not do anything .I am using the latest Xara Designer Pro version [7.1.1.17261]. Is there any way to get it back without re-installing? I'm tired of having to re-install every time something goes wrong [which is kinda frequent]. I don't like having to reset the xara function icons each time [I use a different arrangement than the garden variety supplied].

I am using an i5 processor and have 8 gigs of memory running with Windows 7 OS.

Xara :: Snapping To Grid Points?

Jan 25, 2011

when using grids to draw, is there a way to get xara to snap to only points? lol i know i suck at art haha! but i think im getting just a tad bit better. no really today i drew a head and the other day i drew a car. at least i figured out how to draw on an isometric grid. i was using serif draw plus and i noticed that x4 has a psuedo 3d (which basically uses an isometric grid with snapping to angle. i know how the concept works now but im having some trouble snapping to the points. sure i could draw a flat car or a flat person but id rather keep at it till i understand depth. my current goal is to learn to draw depth through using an isometric grid.

Revit :: Turn Off Orthogonal Snapping?

Jul 30, 2013

I'm doing as-builts of a historic structure and the walls are very slightly out of alignment with the x-y axes. Whenever I'm drawing something that's nearly (but not quite) horizontal or vertical, Revit forces it to be aligned to x-y axes. I don't want that but don't know how to turn it off so that it snaps only to my crooked geometry.

AutoCad :: 3D Drawing - Osnaps Not Always Snapping

Apr 1, 2013

I am using education version of Autocad 2012 and have only around 2 gig of RAM. Whilst drawing , mainly in 3d my osnaps do not seem to work properly. In a lot of cases it is only the "nearest" snap that works. Sometimes I get no snaps when I think there should be plus I get a bunch of tiny green crosses around where I want to snap. Could my lack of RAM be causing this ?

AutoCad :: Snapping Always Selects Origin

Oct 27, 2011

I have just developed a problem where I can only snap to the origin regardless of where my cursor is. I have tried snapping to midpoints, endpoints, centers, etc. it always selects the origin. I even tried to change the origin to a point I want to draw from, but it sends me right back to the original origin.

I made no changes in the software setup - it started when I opened an existing drawing, and now it affects any drawing I start or open.

GIMP :: Stop Snapping To The Guides?

Oct 1, 2013

I don't want my images to default to "snap to guides." I have guides up on most of my files because I use them for spacing my comic; I work from a template so I can have consistent sizing. But I only rarely ever want to snap to those guides.

Yes, I can turn off the snapping, but I have to do this EVERY F***ING TIME. Open a file I've been working on already? Gotta disable the snapping. Open a new file? Gotta disable the snapping. Restarting GIMP because it just crashed? Gotta disable the snapping. Every freaking time for each freaking image. Gimp won't save the setting to the file nor to my preferred settings.

How can I get GIMP to stop setting the guides to snap by default?

Illustrator :: CC Free Transform And Snapping?

Sep 1, 2013

It seems that in CC the Free Transform tool does not snap to grid when resizing (for example) a rectangle. If I have "Snap to Grid" turned on, it only is taking effect with new objects getting drawn. Am I understanding this correctly? If I draw a rectangle, and want to reshape/resize it to fit the grid, how do I do this? It's a bit embarrassing asking this question, but CC seems to have changed some things from CS6.
