Camera Preset - Project Resolution ?

[Alon Dan]

Before I start animating anything, I want to setup my main project and scene resolution.

So I've tried to this:

1. I opened the  Stage Schematic  window and double clicked the Camera1 (same as Right click: Camera Settings).

2. In Camera Settings: I've changed to 16/9 and tried to use a preset of HD 1080

3. No matter what preset I select I get the same error: "Bad camera preset" as shown in the screenshot.

You can see that I manually changed the Pixel size to 1280 x 720 (same ratio of 16/9),
but it didn't work also in 1920x1080 or any other preset resolution, I just tried to see if that was the problem.

Can somebody please explain step-by-step how to use a preset for the camera and the project without getting the error?

Or in general how to use the Camera presets with no errors.

Thanks ahead!

I've had the same problem, it seems that all of the preset options don't work right for some reason. The way I worked around the problem was to type 1920 into the camera preset box, then toggled the lock. Then in the other preset I typed 1080 into and then the 1920 will stay 1920 and won't change into something else. To save the preset look down a little ways in the camera preset box and click the button 'add', you can then name the preset and use it next time you start OT. I've attached a screenshot in case this was confusing.

Thank you for reporting the problem. 

This bug is because of a lack of compatibility between OpenToonz and Toonz Harlequin's camera preset (saved in reslist.txt and cleanupreslist.txt).

When customizing Toonz for Ghibli, we decided to save in preset not only pixel size and aspect ratio but also inch size and offset of camera. And when applying such modification, we did not give priority to keep compatibility with Harlequin's preset data.

I've fixed this issue in the following pull request:

https://github.com/opentoonz/opentoonz/pull/146

With this modification OpenToonz can load both type of the preset; the default preset in reslist.txt (with only pixel size and aspect ratio, which is the same as Toonz Harlequin) and the "OpenToonz version" preset (with pixel size, aspect ratio, inch size and offset, which will be added by users).

Huge help! Thanks =) This is the one piece I was missing for HD settings!
