Friday, May 12th, 2006This one caught me out by being more difficult to get working than I expected when I volunteered myself to write it… Anyway a pair of little scripts savecameradata.py and loadcameradata.py hopefully they will make a certain amount of sense but given the late hour I’m not going to explain them now. Available in a […]

V5I: Centre Finder
Tuesday, May 9th, 2006While working on a picture I realised I needed to find the centre of a set of objects. I could have calculated that by hand but I decided to go for the easy option and create a little Python script. If you’d like a copy you can download Centre Finder.

V5I: Dynamics Script Poll
Wednesday, May 3rd, 2006I played around with the code for the random walk script for Vue 5 Infinite last night and came to the conclusion that it’s quite straightforward to add some basic extra animation features to it.

A Little Perl of a Script
