It is now possible to use the geometry of Meshes and/or Lattices as the target of a constraint. All you need to do, is to create a new Vertex-Group and assign all the points that you wish to use as the target, then type that name into the VG: field for the relevant constraints. One of the cases where this is beneficial is when you need to copy the location of a vertex. Now you don't need to make extra vertex-parents for that. Additional Notes: * The code takes the average of the locations of the nominated vertices, and puts that in world-space for constraint solving (and regular space-conversion stuff). * Currently, rotation and scaling of points is not taken into account. The rotation/scaling used is from the object's matrix. Hopefully, this will only be a temporary problem (will be fixed soon)
Welcome to the fun world of open source. For instructions on building and installing Blender, please see the file named INSTALL. ---------------------.Blanguages and the .blender directory--------------------- The .blender directory holds various data files for Blender. In the 2.28a release those are the .Blanguages file containing a list of translations, the translations themselves and a default ttf font. Blender checks for the presence of this directory in several locations: - the current directory - your home directory - On OSX, the blender bundle is also checked - On Windows, the installation dir is checked. If you get a 'File ".Blanguages" not found' warning, try to copy the .blender dir to one of these locations (your home directory being recommended). -------------------------------------Links-------------------------------------- Getting Involved: http://www.blender.org/docs/get_involved.html Community: http://www.blender3d.org/Community/ Main blender development site: http://www.blender.org/ The Blender project homepage: http://projects.blender.org/projects/bf-blender/ Documentation: http://www.blender.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=documentation&file=index Bug tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=125&group_id=9&func=browse Feature request tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=128&group_id=9&func=browse
