Hi Mike, it is possible to get and set the camera x,y,z position by script.

Here's a script that will copy the camera and target points as text to the clipboard, you can then paste that into a text editor:

script:var v = moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel.getViewport('3D'); moi.copyTextToClipboard( 'Camera=' + v.cameraPt.toString() + '\r\nTarget=' + v.targetPt.toString() );

Here's one that will set the camera point to a specific value:

script:var v = moi.ui.mainWindow.viewpanel.getViewport('3D'); v.cameraPt = moi.vectorMath.createPoint(50.2, 30.5, 10.1);

Also check out this previous thread for some related view saving/restoring stuff:

This is great Michael!


I used the scripts at the link. Works like a charm.


Now if only Dino could write a permanent drop-down options dialog script to store named views... but let's not be too greedy. ;-)


Thanks!

Mike
