My LEGO is flat...

attempt to create LEGO-dust or sort of LEGO explosion.

The brick is made in one minute (see preview screen Center), but when I do the group a cell particle is "flat":

Although 3D, looks like it turns only around an axis... (??)

tried various settings - no hope.

Someone at - it advice?

Sorry, but the way that you set it to the top will not work.  The 3D groups used as source for the cell particles get flattened, it has always been thus.

By example, if you have 3 circles separated on Z in a 3D group and create a transmitter out of this group, the source of the cells still gets flattened, you don't actually have a particle composed of 3 circles of offset. You get a particle of cells that are flat, but the transmitter can project them in 3D space. For text 3D, if you use the object text 3D (single layer) as the source it will provide no flattened in the transmitter.

That said, there is an "easy way" to do this and hard a way. First of all easy:

1. set up your "Trade marked building block" in a group and Center it in the group.

2 animate the rotation on two of the chains of the Group (X / Y for example).  I used the behavior of rate with slightly different values.

3 export this output as a movie, and then import it into the movement.

4. use the film as the source of the issuer. Make sure that the random boot image is checked in the settings of the transmitter.

-You may need to adjust the rotation speed. I used this method to create particles of blood cells in the past and it worked fine.

Pros: Simple configuration works in most cases. Faster and better performance.

Disadvantages: Not true 3D, you must perform a new rendering of the sources of the cell if you need to change the items.

90% of the time that this method will be good enough.

Here's the hard, but it has limits (I'll get to those).

1. in a new group, create your basic "box" using text in 3D. Using the commands to set layer transformation origin (Center of the world) on XYZ, is visually very well.

2. based on the Properties tab, move the anchor point for the box originally as well. Check the position of the top, front and one side. You can reduce the opacity to see the grid in 3D.

3. now, create a new text layer object to be the 'peg '.

4. use the rotation settings in the appearance tab text to get the ankle facing the correct direction, associated with the box.

5. move the layer 'peg' in the right position related to the area using the 3D transformation controls.

6. once in place, select the layer and again move the anchor point toward the center of the world.

You have now two objects which will have all created transformations effectively from the same point. The shared location of anchor is essential to make it work.

7. Select the first box and create a 3D with that issuer.

8 copy the random start in the control of the cell value. You will need it for each post.

9. drag the layer peg on the transmitter, which will create a new cell.

10. glue the random seed value in the box, the cell in peg.

Here is where I would test the basic settings.

IMPORTANT: THE VALUES IN CELL OR CHANGES NECESSARY TO EVERY CELL AND MATCH FOR ALL THE CELLS IN THE TRANSMITTER.

For each cell in the change in the rate of birth to something low (I used 2) so you can see what is happening.  Reading and verification of the animation. If everything is configured correctly (original anchor point points are at 0,0,0 in the values of the world, random seed for the match of cells) that you will have the pegs that stick to the boxes.  If things don't stick you probalby have problems with the anchor positions (they do not match) or values of cells.

Once you have set up the first peg and know that it works, you can add extra pegs by using the previous steps.  Then check that the anchors are centred and correspond to cell values. for each cell in the transmitter.

So here are the limits.

  • Easy to break delicate installation (but not too bad).
  • If you wish the transmitter to turn cells, they will turn only on a single axis (z).  You can work around that, by linking the rigging the rotation of text object layer together values and then animate these on another axis, as Y.  However, this will affect all cells in the transmitter, so things a still fairly uniform.  To work around this problem, you can duplicate the text layers, create an another particle emitter with a few shifts (birth rate, direction of rotation, speed). When played together, they will look more random.

Again, the most important thing to get this second method works is paired things (anchor points, the layer changes, cell parameters). Knowledge of the rigging/link can help.  FWIW, this configuration can also be much more intensive treatment depending on the purpose of text how he takes and create the number of particles, your mileage may vary (this is why there is the easy way).

Good luck!

    Hello

    This is not normal. However, if you have something in the ADF, it takes care of the ADF. He must travel from the glass if ADF is not loaded.

  • Flat cable on Satellite M100 problem

    I bought my Satellite M100 in the Canada but I live in Croatia.
    My LCD flat cable is wrong if I need to replace it. Croatia is not official Toshiba service, so I called that close and asked them for a flat cable...
    The problem is that they do not know what is the difference between Canadians and Europeans of flat cable. Is it the same? If I order it, they will not return my money if the cable does not fit.

    Help, please.
    Best regards

    I'm no expert, but I think that Canadian M100 is the same as European A100.
    I do not know what service you have contacted, but I can recommend you contact http://www.mojservis.hr/ in Zagreb.
    It's a Toshiba authorized service provider and I hope they can help you.

  • Satellite 3000 - x 4 - battery flat

    I took my old Satellite 3000 - x 4 out when she came back the battery was flat and would not charge.
    I bought a new one on e - bay, adapt, and yet it's still flat.
    It works on a/c very well.

    Is it possible that someone can stop charging the battery,
    Do you think that the new battery is not good, or is it my s3000-

    Hi mate

    First of all; are you sure that the battery you bought on ebay is ok?
    There are a lot of strange people who sell a product that is not completely ok
    So first of all, you must be sure that the new battery is 100% ok.

    If the battery is ok so I guess that part of the motherboard works bad maybe something wrong with electronic power supply

    In this case the mobo has need to be replaced, but look, man. This isn't worth a try because a new motherboard is more expensive than good old classic, so I wouldn't recommend replacing the mobo

  • Bluetooth connection with the Lego Mindstorms NXT robot

    Hello
    I got a license for Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba.
    I try to connect to the Lego Mindstorms NXT robot: http://mindstorms.lego.com/en-us/default.aspx
    But it does not work.
    The connection seems to be good and NXT and PC to find them, but when I try to connect, the NXT said "the line is busy".
    Is someone can tell me if he can get through this issue?
    Toshiba and Lego have an agreement on the connection of the questions?
    Thank you.

    Hello

    Do you have Toshiba notebook or just use the Toshiba BT stack?

    How to pass through this issue? Should anyone of us spent 250 Euros to buy it and test it at home? Dear oracid it's user forum and you can get help from someone who has the same home equipment and can help you with his experience.

    Agreement between Toshiba and Lego in my opinion it is not problem. Any manufacturer who build material and want to use BT must know how it works. On the market of equipment, there are specific characteristics for each communication technology and what do we do Toshiba is to build and offer the specified material.

    In your case, you must contact the Lego support and ask for help. they, no doubt, tested own stuff with different hardware platforms, the operating systems and software BT so Lego should have enough experience with own products.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus: possibility to alternate flat and ADF for a scan job

    On the earlier driver software, he was able to detect automatically if you use the ADF and flat for analytical work.  It was a useful feature when scanning a lot of pages that I have been able to feed smooth sheets in the ADF, and then use the dish for receipts of odd size.

    Since software 'upgrade' about a year ago, the user interface of the scanner has changed and I am now forced to choose between ADF or flat for the analytical work all.  The quality of the display is also a downgrade that he now has only a small button on the left to add to other pages.

    Is it possible to return to the old driver software to scan at least?

    I use the printer from several computers Windows 10 & 7 both now have the problem.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Once it has downloaded and installed, go to start > all programs > HP > HP Scan extended > Run "HP Scan extended.

    Let us know if it works.

    You should be able to choose 'Source' before start you scanning when you 'add page '.

  • Last call for PM 7600: flat screen?

    Moving again and I absolutely refuse to give up the print of a 17 "CRT NEC monitor, but still hate to throw the Power Mac 7600/120. Would love to return to this world at least a few times more. Is it possible to get the 7600 to work with a flat screen?

    That's a blast from my past. The graphics card in it has a DB-15. You used to be able to get a DB-15 to VGA. It came with 2 MB of VRAM and can be upgraded to 4 MB. Not sure about the size of a VGA screen, you can use with it. The other option would be to find a PCI graphics card that would go into your operating system and have more VRAM in there to run a bigger screen.

  • Flat lens HDR AS-15

    Hello world!

    I bought my Sony Action Cam for a month there, and in general I'm very happy with it, although I think that Sony should release an another Firmware update with a higher throughput (16 MB/S for 1080/30 p is simply too weak). I have noticied that my videos are almost impossible to observe in some areas (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCEC2TjPekY @ 04:51 for example) due to the effect of the Sun. I think that this is due to the curved lens. The flat lens will solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    We appreciate your comments, and it will be forwarded to our team of engineers for review.

    A flat lens, such as the door AKA - RD1, will not eliminate the issue you encountered. This door guarantees bright colors when shooting underwater, so glare in the videos will not consider. It is recommended that you change the shooting angle to avoid direct sun to wash directly your sequences.
