Hasta La Motion!

this is not a Nuke specific problem, but i thought of putting it here as i has the best chance of getting an answer to this here..

well.. my question is how to find the liner distance for one point to another point in 3D

for instance

[X=10, Y=21, Z=23] ——-> [X=13, Y=24, Z=44]

i can figure out the the distance equation for two 2D points

Distance= √(ΔX^2 + ΔY^2)

but can someone hook me up with a equation that results in the distance between two 3D points…. i know this is high school math but im blank on this matter..

thankx again.. :niceone:

So I’ve just received a shiny new workstation, the new 27" Imac with the i7 cpu, sweet!…

I install Nuke 5.2v3, then go to run it… icon "zooms" as if to start, then nothing.

Ok, so I install 5.2v1… same thing, not even a mention in the Activity Monitor.

So, I decide to "nuke" the HDD and do a clean install of OSX.

Restart, install Nuke 5.2v3 again, launch, same result! Zoom, then nothing.

Am I missing something?

Does Nuke not work with the i7 CPU’s or something?

I have it running on my MBP w/snow leopard just fine. And I have installed it many times without this issue.

Has anyone else come across this? I have a pretty heavy deadline, and this was my saviour… seems like I’m done for! 😉

Any help greatly appreciated!

Cheers.

I need to draw some lines in the screen and make them appear as I have drawn them.

Masks are a paint in the ass for this job cause sometimes drawings will be complicated.

Thank you in advanced.

I’m looking for an expression to convert 3d coordinate into 2d X,Y?

In after effects, there is a wonderful expression named "toComp" that converted 3d position into a 2d coordinate.

I’m looking for the same thing in nuke. =)

thanks

For example, My clip is 1440 X 1080 1.33 aspect = 16:9

I have been using MOV ext with ANIMATION as my codec.
Every render comes out with a square pixel ratio (4:3)

I tried:
checking or unchecking the "USE FORMAT ASPECT" in the write node
I made sure that my project & reformat node is set to 1.333
I even set the codec to ntsc/dv and selected 16:9 aspect
and it STILL came out as 4:3!

What gives???
What am I missing?
thanks a bunch,
Lou
