fly_through

fly_through is an animation module which facilitates controlling the viewer or creating an animation in which the view follows a complex 3D path:

• on,
• through, or
• around your model.

The method by which this module controls fly-throughs allows the user to pause at any time and interact with the model using their mouse or the Az-Inc panel.

Az-Inc parameters (azimuth, elevation, scale, field of view, rotation/scaling center, etc.) are updated by fly_through in real time. This can be seen by running fly_through with the Az-Inc window open. However, please note that this will slow your animation substantially because of the need to continously update the parameters in Az-Inc.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure to TURN OFF "Animate viewer" in the Animator module if you're controlling fly_through with the Animator.
