Animation:- Fly THROUGH viewpoints with smooth camera track
« on: September 25, 2021, 07:28:42 AM »
I'm having a nightmare wrestling with the animation feature of Metashape.
When i set the viewpoints, i thought that the animation would actually visit that view on it's path around the scan... But if Smooth Camera Track is turned on, it simply doesn't.  It wonders over towards it, but never gets there, biases looking far too high above the object and then continues over to then miss the next one....  so the animation never shows what i wanted, what i'd told it to.
Then when i try to edit the viewpoints, by double clicking on it, moving the view, then clicking update for that viewpoint, it lands up editing it is a completely weird way, not resembling what i did.    Something is wrong here, are there bugs in this editing/updating feature?

So can we have an option to make the smooth camera track pass THROUGH each viewpoint we've set, on it's path?
So every viewpoint, view, angle, is present in the final exported video?

Thanks.
