How do I stop the Transposer from following its target when in the dead zone?

Is there a way to stop the Transposer from following its target when the target is in the dead zone of the composer?

The reason I'm asking is that I'm trying to implement a camera for a movement selector. The position of the movement selector is controlled by mouse movement via ray casting.

The problem is that as the camera moves so does the mouse and this causes the movement selector to constantly move across the screen. Adding damping makes the problem less pronounced but it doesn't solve it.

Any insight you might have would be appreciated.

Thanks

 

I'm not seeing the Framing Transposer. Is that a script? The documentation doesn't mention it.

Thanks

 

thanks... I downloaded it and installed it. I can wait to give it a try. I just have to figure-out why I'm getting all these invalid references to "GetSetAttribute", MinAttribute.

 

Thanks for your help. I managed to get it working.

The Framing Transposer is what I was looking for.

Now, all I need to do is add rotation and zooming functionality.. I suppose that's at least another virtual camera. I'll have to update its position to match the Framing Transposer camera when I switch over to it, but shouldn't be too hard.

hmm.. maybe the orbit cam can simply follow the Framing Transposer camera at 0 distance.

 

Now that I'm using the Framing Transposer, it looks like I have the opposite problem . I need to rotate around the movement selector and prevent re-positioning of the camera while in the dead zone of the Framing Transposer.

Since translation and rotation must occur at the same time (using the keyboard and mouse). I can't simply switch between virtual cameras.

I guess its still a question of what camera I need to script manually.

 

Let me explain a bit more. I have a movement selector that is controlled by the mouse. I'm now using the Framing Transposer with a large dead zone and an unlimited soft zone. This works very well, but I need to find a way to orbit around the movement selector (via keyboard input) at the same time. Orbiting around the center of the screen is another option.

 

Thanks, I decided to write my own custom orbit cam script and attach it to a Virtual Camera.
