DOF does not animate

Hi Skindigo-ers,

I tried to animate a scene and shift the cameras focal point, but unfortunately the plugin doesn't seem to support a shifting DOF.

The focal point in this animation should go from big car to small car to the remote control and back again. (I chose a different focal point for each scene tab, applied and updated the view).

Here's the animation:

Is this a bug or is there some workaround to make it work?
(I am using Skindigo 1.0.9)

Regards,
Kwistenbiebel

Hi,

It's not really a bug. Only SketchUp camera attributes can be animated. Focal point is not a SketchUp camera attribute. (There's no way to change it using the SU interface)
