Hi Dr. Sassi,

sorry for the delay. You suggestion of Reset Scale seemed to do the trick.

Thank you

Hi Dr. Sassi,

Interesting... Yep that seems to work on my end as well. Not sure what I was doing wrong last time.
Thank you for looking at this for me.

Hi All,

I am experiencing something that seem strange, however, I am new to C4D so it is possible that this is normal or I am doing something wrong.

When I view my scene in the RedShift Picture Viewer the scene looks correct.

When I import the C4D file into AE there is some strange scaling of the Illustrator import where the text seems scales.

When I view my scene in the Render Picture Viewer it appears like it does in AE with the text scaled small.

I am not sure what is going on here and if anyone has experienced this or know what I need to adjust I would appreciate it.

Please see the attached images. (Bottom image is correct)

Hi all,

I am attempting to remove an area light's refection in a backdrop mesh.

What I have tried to do...
1- Place the Backdrop in the Exclusion section of the light (Rim Left). This did not seem to work.
2- Use the Composite tag on the light and de-select Seen by Refection.

Not sure if this is possible. I like the text reflection on the Backdrop floor but not the area light reflection.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Dr. Sassi,

Thank you for your insight and help.

Best!

Hi Dr. Sassi,

Thank you for your help with this.

What is the benefit to cutting the N-Gons into four quads?

In you second example.. just so I follow:

• You created the 8 sided polygon from a n-Side spline and the text splines, extruded that, then deleted out the inner parts of the text.
• Then you created the Loft and placed the merged mesh in front of the loft?

Thank you

Hi all.

I am new to C4D and taking on what seems to be a daunting task. I seem to be running into a few issues and am hoping that I might get some direction on where I am going wrong.

I am attempting to engrave text from a merged Illustrator file. I pulled the splines out of the Illustrator file and have extruded them separately. Then played both the text extruded splines and extruded mesh into a Boole. There seems to be something working but not all of the splines appear.

Any help is appreciated.
