I am trying to move objects along a 45° angle at a distance relative to paperspace.
If the distance was always the same I could do:
Move;Displacement;1,1;;
However, I am having trouble with the syntax of
Move;Displacement;'spacetrans;10,10;;
It seems to work out some calculated average of those 2 values and places the object seemingly randomly.
I've tried to flatten a drawing using the displacement method (selecting all, then moving by displacing 0,0,1e99 and then displacing back).
Somehow I didn't select all objects and now some are on z=0 while others are not. Worse yet, I didn't notice it in time, so now some objects (dimensions, lines, etc.) have one end on z=0 and another on 1e99/-1e99.
Is there another way to make all objects have z=0? Best if I can be sure I select *all* objects (currently ctrl-A tells me some objects are on locked layers, though I can see no locked layer and some are not in current space, whatever that means).
If I am copying an object using snaps vertically down a wall a certain distance and come to a wall corner and then need to copy the object the same distance horizontally as I did vertically is there an easy way to enter this new direction? I keep thinking that I would just enter displacement and for X I should be able to use my mouse and snap/measure the old Y distance and then put Y,Z as 0. However, there is no option to get a relative distance in displacement. Is there something I am missing in the command?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhat is the best way to measure angular displacement on a FEA simulation?
A simple example is described here: The screen shot shows a long rigid body (left) mounted on a bracket (far right). The legs of the bracket are fixed on the right. There is a down force on the left. The goal is to measure vertical displacement on the left. All of the vertical displacement comes from flexing at the bracket, so this can be considered an angular displacement.
Is there a way to measure this vertical displacement without the long rigid body or it's mesh elements?
Or is there a way to turn off the mesh elements on the rigid body? I want to eliminate the unnecessary FEA computations to speedup the simulations.
Is there any way to include a trig function in the displacement distance?
@(7sin60)<75 does not work, but it is what I would like to do.
I have to calculate it each time and type in something like the following:
@6.062178<75
I would love for my 2011 and 2013 to work the same as my 2008 does.
In 2008, when I grab a grip and stretch it with either ortho or polar turned on, I get a little tooltip beside the crosshairs. All it says is the distance and the angle, and whether it is Ortho or Polar. For example, if I stretch to the left with ortho on, it may say
Ortho: 16.55 < 180°
Or if I stretch up and to the right with Polar on, it will say
Polar: 16.55 < 45°
I really, really really want this back! This is not dynamic input, I hate all that ridiculous clutter around my crosshairs. But this little info box is absolutely invaluable!
I have checked the Tooltip setting (on in all versions), And I've been playing with all the Dynamic Input settings, but I can't get it to work. The odd part is that 2011 was working until about a week ago. I'm not sure if 2013 was or not.
We are projecting a support for one mirror of our Infrared beam line. The support is a block with a rotational weak link and that needs to be rotated about +/- 1°. I would like to know a way to insert this angular displacement and get the stress in the weak link area. I don't have the moment loads and components.

effects from a displacement map?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI modeled a female body and imported from 3DSMAX to mudbox to texture but now i'm having trouble on baking the displacement map in MUDBOX. I'm using tiff 32 bit floating,7 x 7k, with search distance of 4 (i believe it's a relative good number). My source model is step 0(with about 2 million faces) and the other is step 2(with aprox. 6 million faces). I'm using target to closest model, smoothing only the source and wht i get is this: a big black image with one or another gray dot.
I saw several tutorials about wht might be. I changed several times the search distance, and also tried to bake in max. Nothing seems to work. Mudbox keeps leving me with a blck image and max gives me something strange that works a little as a displacement map but it is totaly untileble.The two images attached are from mudbox. One as i get, and in the other i tried messing with levels in photoshop but it didn't work too.
How can I use vector displacement in 3dsmax2011 ?
View 5 Replies View RelatedFilter > Distort > Displace is undervalued gem, yet it has significant drawback - the displacement does not interpolate between adjustment pixels. This shortcoming in combination with the fact that Photoshop uses very fine noise to smooth transitions between gradations in 8-bit channels and therefore creates very unsightly, jugged effect even when displacement source is a gradient. Unfortunately the filter does not work with 16-bit channels and its closest relative - Liquify uses meshes instead of images for input.
So here is my question: does any of you aware of a way, in Photoshop or otherwise to create silky smooth displacements within 2D imagery (there are bunch of software to accomplish it in 3D) using interpolated 8 bit or original 16-bit (or higher) images as source?
The attached image was produced by displacing perfectly smooth word "test" with plain black to white gradient at 999% displacement strength.
is there a way to create smooth displacements using images as map. Since displace filter has only 256 levels it consistently creates jaggy results when used with settings of 100% and above. So this filter works reasonably well for small displacements and small images, but try to displace group of pixels 500% in 10 by 10 inch file at 300 dpi even using silky smooth gradient. Desired effects can be achieved to some extent with liquify filter, but that filter in turn lacks ability to use images as maps. I hoped that 16-bit support in CS would extend to displace filter giving us 64000 levels insted of 256, but this is not the case. Gradients themselves can be very smooth now, but displace filter will not accept 16 bit files.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat I am looking for is some sort of plugin that takes the tediousness out of it and lets you preview it in realtime.
An ideal plugin would be able to do the following:
-view the source image - image to be displaced.
- View composite image preview(what you see in photoshop when the disp map is applied)
- View Displacement Map preview - hopefully these would be side-by side
I have an image of a face, and an image of text and I want that text to look like it is wrapped onto the face.
Select the face image (ctrl-A) & open the plugin. THis becomes the composite (preview) image
Next to that is the Disp. map. In this case I would check a box that says "use composite as displacement map" It would greyscale the image of the face, and that would be the height/depth disp. map whihc I could then fine tune.
Next to that would be where the image to be displaced is. I open up the image file of the text.
Now I see in the "Composite image" the text wrapped around the face, following the contours of the face. I can adjust the levels of the disp map to create a more dramatic or more subtle effect. WHen I'm finished I click OK.
The "file to be displaced" (in this case, the text image) can also be "same as composite"
If you have ever seen this image where it looks like a photo of a crowd taken from above, but it almost looks liek the height of the people forms Bill Clintons face, this is what this would be used for.
The composite would be the photo of the crowd. The disp map is the photo of clinton's face. SInce the displaced image and the Composite image are the same (via checkbox), you just hit apply after adjusting your disp map. It applies the disp map to the selected original image, and the lights & darks displace the original and give it that look that I just described.
- click to open a source file for the disp. map. - ideally I would be able to open even a color jpg, and it would convert it to greyscale upon opening in the plugin window.
- ability to use the selection (preview composite image) as a displacement map rather than saving & opening it up
- invert the greyscale disp map.
- ability to adjust levels of the alpha/disp map in the preview window in order to darken the darks, etc.
- ability to resize/rescale the dispmap in the preview window. THen in realtime or close to realtime I would see the results in the Source Image preivew window. This way I can shrink or grow the disp map to fit my selection if need be
- Ability to grab the disp map and move it around in order to precisely line it up against the preview image
I'm sculpting a portrait work and after generating the displacement map, the map itself automatically is displayed in the model. This is actually the second time I'm experienced this.
How can I disable this auto function without having to turn off the layer in the layer tab each and everytime mudbox generates the displacement map.

Is there a way to show a displacement map effect preview in a shaded/realistic viewport?
I know you can do it in Maya, just can't find the setting for this in Max 2012.
After extraction displacement map from hi-res model, map has a very low detail, but model is very detailed. What is wrong?
View 2 Replies View RelatedCan I "collapse" displacements in Maya?I mean, in Max you can use a displacement modifier with a map applied, and you can see your displacement effect in viewport. Then, you can collapse this modifier and your geometry has now the displacement effect collapsed, is a new geometry with very nice detail.This is very usefull for example to use this geometry in Mudbox with a very nice base mesh.In Softimage you can do the same thing with a push deformer with your displacement map applied.
