using perspective with animator

Hi Everyone,

I wondered if anyone had any tips for using perspective and animator. It
seems to me as though the way SW handles perspective is all a bit funny, so
if you do an exploded view, for example, and animate it the view changes
constantly to reflect the new size of the view-port.

Since there is no 'camera', at least not to my knowledge, how can you get
round this so that the prespective doesn't keep changing?

Thanks.

Or a very large part that is hidden, or was it invisible I don't remember
one of them worked.

Yes, here is the original article...

You may also want to try the lens trick...

*) Revolve a single surface in the shape of a magnifying glass lens.
*) Attach a glass material to it and play with the refraction setting
*) Set 'Specular' to '0'
*) Set 'Roughness' to '1'
*) Set 'Reflectivity to '0'
*) Set Transmission to '1'

Drop this into your assembly and render the model through the lens.
This way you can leave Perpective View OFF.

This is how I was able to make my 'view from security camera'
rendering here...
