It's very description says "Keep an object from penetrating other objects." -- honestly I do not know what the point of this component is with "Do not constraint" turned on.</p> <p>The simplest way to accomplish your above example would be to use trigger zones. I updated the example to use trigger zones to tell whether the sphere is currently colliding with a box or not. Some limitations to point out with this are:</p> <p>1. There is some overhead on creating trigger zones for each object (especially if you need to customize the trigger zone for something other than a box matching it's bounding volume).</p> <p>2. Trigger zones can only be basic shapes, or a combination of basic shapes. If you need very detailed collision on a complex object, it may not be ideal.</p> <p>If your scenario is simple enough I would try just using trigger zones to test if the object is inside another. If it's more complex I think we will need to move on to the "Dynamics" section of the Library tab, where all of Studio's physics components are located. They are a bit more complicated to setup, as it's a full physics engine, but they also give you much more information for collisions. </p> <p>I can prepare a sample using dynamics components to detect collision instead if you need, let me know. </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/node2d-clickable#post-66705 Wed, 16 May 2012 12:43:13 +0000 Reset 66705@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Hum ok, this should do the trick for the moment.<br /> it would be cool to have a checkbox to avoid the alpha testing in a futur version.</p> <p>thx </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/node2d-clickable#post-66704 Wed, 16 May 2012 11:55:33 +0000 iainB85 66704@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Ok, I see the confusion -- I was simply doing a fully colored 2D node and settting it's alpha (in the color settings) to 0, which doesn't effect it being clicked.</p> <p>It seems, however, a .png with transparency in only parts of it acts different and indeed you cannot click on the transparent parts (which could be useful in some situations).</p> <p>I don't see a setting to modify it, but an easy work around would be to parent it under a 2D node - colored (of same size) and set the colored node alpha to 0, so you can't see it but click on it (effectively creating the click "hotspot" that you want).</p> <p>I updated your project to show what I mean.

Stay tuned possibly as early as this afternoon for media on the update. &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.3dvia.com/forums/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_smile.gif&quot; title=&quot;:)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> <p>To answer your immediate questions:</p> <p>1. This one doesn't seem like an actual problem? &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.3dvia.com/forums/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_cool.gif&quot; title=&quot;8)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; <br /> 2. I don't think the camera settings were modified, so z-fighting shouldn't be increased. There will always be some z-fighting in 3D applications if two planes are directly on top of each other, can you simply offset it a tiny amount to fix the problem?<br /> 3. This is on purpose, to make avatar navigation easier and never to have weird camera angles while trying to walk. If you hold down the left mouse button and rotate while walking it will turn your avatar left-right. If you hold down the middle mouse button while walking you can rotate around your avatar and walk at the same time. Letting go will always recenter the camera behind avatar.<br /> 4. I don't understand what you mean here, can you describe the scenario further? &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.3dvia.com/forums/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_confused.gif&quot; title=&quot;:?&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; <br /> 5. I am not experiencing this. If I open the chat, click elsewhere in the Scene, and type something it does not record in the chat window. Can you confirm this and let us know what operating system, and browser + version you are using?<br /> 6. I am not seeing this one either, do you have some specific models we can reproduce this with?<br /> 7. I am not sure I understand what you mean here either. Again, do you have a specific model to illustrate what you mean here so we can reproduce?</p> <p>Thanks for your feedback Tomy -- this is just the first release of the new version, but we are still working on quite a few things for it in the future. &lt;img src=&quot;http://www.3dvia.com/forums/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_cool.gif&quot; title=&quot;8)&quot; class=&quot;bb_smilies&quot; /&gt; </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/3dvia-studio-beta-and-pro-updated-to-214391#post-66702 Wed, 16 May 2012 10:39:51 +0000 windicefire 66702@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Where can we find list of all the changes?<br /> Here only major ones are listed </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/node2d-clickable#post-66701 Wed, 16 May 2012 10:31:18 +0000 Reset 66701@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Here is an example project (with studio build 2.14.391) </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/3dvia-studio-beta-and-pro-updated-to-214391#post-66700 Wed, 16 May 2012 07:29:30 +0000 alonezhby 66700@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Ok,<br /> Hope you will release new build as soon as possible. </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/where-is-the-3dvia-printscreen-application-now#post-66699 Wed, 16 May 2012 00:14:53 +0000 tomy 66699@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Did this work for you?<br /> <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20110717042507/http://www.3ds.com/products/3dvia/3d-xml/1/" rel="nofollow">http://web.archive.org/web/20110717042507/http://www.3ds.com/products/3dvia/3d-xml/1/</a> </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/3dvia-scenes-new-style#post-66698 Tue, 15 May 2012 22:17:30 +0000 tomy 66698@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Ah, got it. Most of the controls are in the upper left corner on the Dassault Systemes button, to change between avatar and free navigation, add manage and create models, and do sharing stuff. More stuff yet can be found by pressing the wrench, and further navigation controls can be found by mousing over the lower left (useful for avatar or free navigation "spectator" mode).<br /> I spotted a few immediate problems:<br /> 1. My computer can run Awesome mode without lag<br /> 2. Anything on the ground causes z-fighting, unlike the earlier scenes.<br /> 3. The avatar move much quicker than before and always resets the camera angle when moving<br /> 4. Not really a problem but a limitation, that I cannot zoom out under a model without an auto zoom in towards the avatar.<br /> 5. Chat records anything you type, whether or not the textbox is focused.<br /> 6. Some models turn see through even without an avatar in the way.<br /> 7. Improper behavior of see through textures (blocks out everything textured, but those that are coloured show through). </p> http://www.3dvia.com/forums/topic/3dvia-scenes-new-style#post-66697 Tue, 15 May 2012 22:00:04 +0000 tomy 66697@http://www.3dvia.com/forums/ <p>Woah... that's new.
