I have objects which are constrained to paths. The objects move down their paths with a given velocity via an ICE solution. I want the objects to not be visible at the start and end of the path, but visible everywhere else. Manually keyframing visibility in this situation does not seem optimal, especially since the objects aren't really being keyframed.

Any reason why you have to use ICE to drive visibility? I would think the established toolset should suffice.

(LARC-E1A)[LITES] Sent: Wednesday, June 19, 2013 12:33 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Can you see me now? I've got a model hierarchy of dozens of parts under a parent object. The parent object is animated via an ICE tree and I've added conditional behavior to the ice tree to affect things like visibility of the parent object when certain situations are met. This is all working as I would like with one except. I'd like the visibility condition to propagate from the parent to the entire model. Am I required to apply a setdata node of visibility for every child of the parent, or is there an easier way? I seem to recall I would have performed a branch key in the past, but I have no clue how this might translate to ICE. -- Joey Ponthieux LaRC Information Technology Enhanced Services (LITES) Mymic Technical Services NASA Langley Research Center __________________________________________________ Opinions stated here-in are strictly those of the author and do not represent the opinions of NASA or any other party.
