Indigo fatal error

It says that it found an unexpected element in "lens shift shift up distance" in the camera element. :?

Maybe for a future release, it could give you some hints on how to fix these errors?

@neoO

on behalf of all labouring export writers I have to say that is a useless post
I get tired of seeing these one line descriptions of errors and people expecting to get effective help from that

if you really think you have an issue in the first instance reply to your exporter forum stating some helpful information like what versions of the exporter and indigo you are using etc.

if you are quoting correctly there, there is a mistake in that exporter in that 'shift' is stated twice
it is up to the exporter writer to fix that or alternatively if you want in this case, open the .igs in Notepad and edit the line with that in it to look like this

Code: Select all

	<lens_shift_right_distance>0.000000</lens_shift_right_distance>
		<lens_shift_up_distance>0.002000</lens_shift_up_distance>
note that I quoted both shift statements in case they are wrong
please think about what you are posting
how high is a chinaman... :roll:

my guess is mis-matched indigo/skindigo versions...? like big fan said, a little more info would be helpful.

Sorry, but that's because the error was a one liner too.

Indigo version : 1.9.02
Skindigo Version : SkIndigo 1.1.8

Basically, latest versions of both.

I read in the sketchup forum, that 1.1.8 was compatible with the latest v of indigo

well there you go - you didnt even quote the error correctly let alone tell us what you were using :roll:

now we know that much I'll let a Skindigo user answer it 8)

cheers BF

EDIT:
ok wait I've got my good samaritan hat on and actually I see at the bottom of page 1 of the Skindigo1.1.8 thread what appears to be exactly the same error and on p2 the solution. wow! what a bit of luck :wink:

Guy it's been told like a THOUSAND times that you only should use the corresponding versions of the exporter and indigo...
How could Indigo 1.0.9 recognize commands first introduced in 1.1.8 or even later?
It's like... trying to read DVDs with your CD player and wonder why it won't work -.-
I'm just that upset 'cause you ask the same questions that have already been answered sufficent times over and over again...
USE THE BOARDS SEARCH GODDAMNIT!

Uh, im pretty new here as it turns out. From the point of view of a newbie, thre could be hundrds of potential issues.

Moreover, this version of skindigo was released as a test version, so why are you blaming people for reporting errors?

This Version of SKindigo, yes... but did you check the Version of Indigo?

Check my join date of the forums... and... why do you think I don't ask newb questions?
Maybe because I use the board search/logical approach BEFORE asking questions?

I have the same problem as neo0. I am using SkIndigo 1.1.8, which is reported to work with Indigo 1.1.9, which I am using. I would appreciate any possible help. The only line containing "lens_shift_up_distance" in the Ruby script is as follows:

Code: Select all


out.puts "			<lens_shift_up_distance>#{@irs.shift_up.to_f/1000.0}</lens_shift_up_distance>"

out.puts "			<lens_shift_right_distance>#{@irs.shift_right.to_f/1000.0}</lens_shift_right_distance>" 							
out.puts "		</camera>"
Thank you.
