View Full Version : Mass distortion within a camera view

Hello All,

My question pertains to a 3D view created by a camera "see attachment". The image on the left is the view without the camera. As you can see the mass I have created is a sweep using a profile as well as voids. The image on the right is the mass in the camera view. The mass shows up as a vertical surface instead of a complex curve as it is shown in the left image. Is there a simple solution by adjusting some setting in the camera view or is there another way to create this mass? Thank you for your help!!!!!

Is that even the same element? It looks like a totally different element in your perspective view? Is the mass turned on in the perspective?

I just did a test and I couldn't reproduce a compound curve showing up vertical in a perspective view no matter how much I fiddled with the lens etc...

Unfortunately it is the same element. In the prospective view "image on left" the mass shows correctly so I believe it is turned on. The problem I’m having is that in the camera view the mass shows as a straight vertical mass instead of a curved vertical mass. If you have a chance try making a curved sweep and then make a curved profile. Once you have your shape set up a "camera view" and see if you get the same effect as I am. Thanks for your response.

I already did just that (refer to my comments in previous post)... can you isolate that part of the model you have in a new file and upload it...?
