dblhelix Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 my roto's gone missing. just now, it can't be far? clues; i'm in the bus stop project it's been unpickable (and visible) all the time (together with camera&lights) (i know how to hide objects) checked for weird keys in wrong places, everything's looks ok. the usual suspects: keys, num pad keys this time; i've hit several misses in that area which includes 'home', 'end', 'pg up&dn' keys. edit already: it's still in the materials, just not showing in render.

NancyGormezano Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I've had that happen - and I've found that the best way to get it back is to delete it from your chor - by deleting alllllll the references (indicated in red) under the camera data, then going to frame 0 and adding the roto back in. to add a roto - right click on the camera/new/rotoscope/pick the image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dblhelix Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 weeeeee it's back! thank you! two things; there's a place "image timing range end" and dito start. got curious, checked, end said "-1". start said "0". so that's what this was! now, how that happened in the first place is a halloween miracle.. second, having said that i'd like to confirm the basic wisdom in Nancy's advice. a very young woman once gave me sage advice when animating: "if it's broken, don't try to fix it - redo it." something to remember.
