Hi everyone! Its been a minute!

I somehow don’t have the magnifier pop up window on my camera calibrator tool when adding new lines. I don’t know why this is and don’t know how to fix this. Anyone know how to reactivate it so it pops up and zooms when I am laying down new lines?

Thanks Faunt!

Hi Faunt,

While setting the point of a line, is there not even a tiny square? 8x8 pixels? The magnifying squares come up only when, e.g., the point of a line is clicked on.

What are the settings of the Camera Calibration Tag> Attribute Manger> Settings? What are the settings?

The typical option would be to delete the preferences: “Cinema 4D.prf” file, but yes, that creates some work to get everything back. I typically zip the prefs, then delete the original. So the old one can’t interfere, but I keep them in a different folder.

Perhaps check with the Support

Let me know if you can share more information.

Cheers

Hiiiiiii Dr. Sassi! Okay, yes thank you for the info. It sounds like something is broken on my end or behaving strangely. In settings for the tool, in the attribute manager, everything seems to be activated so I don’t see a reason why this should be not be working. I have a pretty customized UI at the point, so perhaps I will reboot the whole layout and try again. I’m sure that solution will work. I’ll contact support too. Thanks and nice to hear from you again. Have a most epic day!

Hi Faunt,

Perhaps re-start the whole system, which means also a fresh start of C4D.

If nothing helps, and you are on the current C4D build, contact the support.

Fingers crossed.
