What just happened? I'm guessing the original patch for camera guides got rejected. But it seems people think that bg images for empties is a replacement for it? why is this? And why is it cool to override Empties with a gazillion draw types, but somehow this is bad design for Cameras?
If the rationale is 'parent an empty with thirds grid png on it' to the camera, we could already parent a wireframe object to the camera- even easier since you don't also have to go into a paint package, but both suffer from: -a bunch of labor to set up, then needs to be fiddled with everytime you change the camera or tweak the focal length. and unneeded clutter in your scene. Don't get me wrong, the new image empties are nice for reference images for modeling. But: They don't have anything to do with camera composition guides, which are more like the 'titlesafe' overlay already in the camera view options. PS. I hope I don't come across as angry. I'm just amused, and unaffected, since I patched my own copy of blender a long time ago ;) _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
