Hi , i have coppercube 6.6 , and I get this code

// get the position of the first object
var pos1 = coppercube.getSceneNodeFromName("Object1").getPosition();

// get the position of the second object
var pos2 = coppercube.getSceneNodeFromName("Object2").getPosition();

// calculate the midpoint between the two objects
var midpoint = new CL3D.Vect3d((pos1.X + pos2.X) / 2, (pos1.Y + pos2.Y) / 2, (pos1.Z + pos2.Z) / 2);

I just wanna know how to apply it on a camera object.

don't know what kind of class you use but here same code


var pos1 = ccbGetSceneNodeProperty(ccbGetSceneNodeFromName("cubeMesh1"),"PositionAbs");
var pos2 = ccbGetSceneNodeProperty(ccbGetSceneNodeFromName("cubeMesh2"),"PositionAbs");
var midpoint = new vector3d((pos1.x + pos2.x) / 2, (pos1.y + pos2.y) / 2, (pos1.z + pos2.z) / 2);
//set camera target to middle point between two boxes
ccbSetSceneNodeProperty(ccbGetActiveCamera(),"Target",midpoint);

@Manomeno,

the code you presented is not CopperCube API commands conform thus will not be understood by CC JavaScript compiler/interpreter while @SamGrady's version looks like it does fullfil that requirement

CopperCube's JavaScript reference about valid syntax commands can be found at CC's documentation pages

Tried Ai?
