Motion Trail on viewport -Version Up

[taro]

Hi, I put v1.4 on first post. Try it. ( It took long time to fix it. )

And someone added links about Visual C++ 2010 [Redistributable].
I really appreciate it

Woot! downloading and installing. Thanks again Taro!

Hi

When I'm trying to Compile The Code I got this message:

1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\cstdlib(24): error C2039: 'exit' : is not a member of '`global namespace''
1>C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\include\cstdlib(24): error C2873: 'exit' : symbol cannot be used in a using-declaration


Do you have any idea to solve this problem?

[taro]

I don't know. I didn't have the errors.
I googled the errors, I could see many pages to say about them.
If you haven't solved the problems, try to do like the pages.

I got new error messages:

I want to ask you about the program do you use to compile the code?

thank you...

[origin]

you need to link opengl32.lib

[taro]

Like origin said, you need to link opengl32.lib.

I used Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express to compile them.

[mjd3d]

Thank you Origin and Taro.
It's working now.

[taro]

glad to hear it.

[geoath]

Taro thanks a lot for this useful tool!
I don't know if anybody else faced this weird behaviour though:

-create a null and and animate it (e.g frames 1 -5 -10) with translation and rotation keys (important: rotation key values must be no zero to repro my problem).

-Now go to frame 5 (which is a keyframe) grab the point of the motion trail on this frame and translate it: in my case the rotation of the null goes to 0! if i go back or forth one frame, the null returns to it's original rotation value though.

Note:this doesn't happen if my timeline cursor is not on the keyframe i want to alter via the motion trail (e.g my timeline curson on frame 4 instead of keyframe 5). i used the latest version of the addon, didn't notice this behaviour in the previous version.

Isn't it weird?

[taro]

Thanks, geoath.
I confirmed it now, it's weird.
I think I made a mistake when I fixed a bug for v1.4.
I think I can fix it, but I can't build it now, so wait a minute.
I will upload new version in Monday or Tuesday.
Thank you for letting me know.

[taro]

I uploaded a new version, it is just a bug fix. Please try it out.

Hey Taro, this plugin is insanely awesome, thanks for doing it!

There is one feature which would be really cool to add eventually:

Right now the tool works pretty well showing the path of constrained objects, and even objects constrained with keyframes on the constraint as well, along with its blended result! What would be nice is if we could edit those curves (which belong on the constraint) when cnsComp, or the constraint itself is selected. For instance a position/pose constraint. It's just a suggestion.

[taro]

Thank you for a suggestion.
I don't use cnsComp very often, so I can't even answer if I can make it or not now.
Maybe I have to understand how to use it first, so I'll try to use it as long as I can.
But I don't have animation task recently...
Anyway, thank you.

[Helli]

GREAT TOOL !

Absolutly awesome.

Okey to add some feedback too:
It's about manipulating key slopes. Works fine except if u want to manipulate the slopes of key which is on the frame you are at the moment.
So if you got a key on frame 5 and u are on frame 5 manipulating the slopes of this key will behave wired.

[taro]

Thank you for feedback.
I thought I fixed it and checked it in v1.5. But it is wired, indeed. What did I do....?
Okay, thanks. I'll fix it in next version.
