CAMERA PATH TOOL
The Camera Path Tool allows you to create and edit camera animations inside HemoVision, and export this animation as a standalone video file.
A camera path consists of multiple camera positions that define how the camera moves through the scene. To activate the tool, first add a Camera Path object and select it. The most recently selected camera path remains active in the Camera Path Tool, even when other objects are selected elsewhere.
Camera Position Table
The table lists all camera positions in the selected camera path. Each row represents one camera position, with the following properties.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Time to next | Time required to move from this camera to the next (seconds) |
| Pause | Time the animation pauses at this camera (seconds) |
You can select a camera position by clicking on a row in this table.
Info
Note that the Time to next setting has no effect on the last camera unless the Loop last to first option is enabled (see Settings later).
