Moving Pictures

Hi there,



In our incredibly cheesy christmas show i am after a way to make a image appear to move across the screen (similar to how i've seen 'shooting stars' done in the past.)



Any ideas for how to do that?



Many thanks




Alex

Hi Alex,

you can create a imagecontainer slide and create a custom event that changes the location of the image on the dome.

You can do this with the following command

<SLIDENAME>.prop.Offset <X> <Y> <R> <T>  

the first numeral is the location of the center of the image on the x axis and the second numeral is the location on the y axis these can be positive and negative integers.

The third numeral will the the rotation of the image from 0 to 180 to rotate it to the right and 0 to -179 to rotate to the left. The final number is time in seconds. 

So for example

<SLIDENAME>.prop.Offset 15.00 30.00 25.00 5
will move the image 15  degrees in the x and 30 degrees in the Y, rotates the image 25 degrees and all of this will happen over the course of 5 seconds.
The property you'll want to look at to re-size them is Fov, which is measured in degrees.
Use <SLIDENAME>.prop.Fov 10 10 to set the image to cover 10 degrees of your field of view. This, too, can be animated by adding another number at the end, in seconds.
