(?) Bob Hahn's tut on 3d photo's

[TwidderBird]

hi, I've been watching the tut's available. as I watched BH's tut on making a 3D photo--I believe he was using XXtremePro-- he used a dialog box which
involved a camera to measure the distance between the 2 photos. I can't find
any camera support on my version of 'XX Of' and am waiting for the latest
upgrade to XXtreme to arrive. will this upgrade have these features that BH used to create 3d photos?? thanks

If your talking about the little camera picture, it is just an illustration Bob created to show how far you need to move the camera for the second picture.

Hello Twidderbird,

could you post a link to the post so we can know what you are talking about. Sometimes the guys here use more than one tool in there toolbox to get something done. This might be the case from what you posted.

[TwidderBird]

sure, raynerj1, that makes perfect sense....

It looks like he's opening the "clipart management" box when the camera appears in the menu he pulls up.

I watched the clip 4 times and that's all I could come up with.

I couldn't see any dialog box myself, but I would imagine he just used the layer gallery to turn on a layer for the camera, and another for the measurement.

thanks guys for looking into it; as I said I believe he's using XXtremePro--
I don't have this feature on XXtreme 0f. will this feature be included with the upgrade to XXtreme 3.2 (no Pro)??
(if indeed he's using a camera from the layers gallery it implies a feature of the animation process, I believe). thanks to anyone who can find the answer and double cheers to ya!

This is not a feature of Xara, its just a graphical representation of how to move a real camera from side to side if you want to take 2 photographs and combine them into a single stereo image.
