Action Reference Documentation ?

[Ingomann]

Hello,

just trying out Smoke 2015 on a new machine I wonder where I can find a Reference Guide in which all nodes inside action are described.

Nodes in CFX are described in the Smoke Manual and Help files.

But for the node inside Action I could not find such a reference guide that lists all nodes in action, what are they doing, how are they used.

In blind trying the nodes, they often do nothing because some of them depend on other nodes (like shadow cast depend on light node and so on)

Does anybody have a hint for me, where I can find such s summary for the nodes in action ?

Thanks a lot

Ingo.

Hi,

If you go to the user documentation at http://docs.autodesk.com/smoke2015-user-guide/files/topichead_6.htm - you will come to the section about compositing in Action. In these pages should cover most of the nodes and their workflows in Action.

Hope this helps.

Regards
Grant

Hello Grant,
thanks a lot. I think, this help a step further.
If I don't find a node in the user guide or don't understand how to use it, is it okay, when I ask you here ?
Best regards

Hi Ingo,

You can ask here with pleasure. I will try answer if I have time but there are also other users here that can talk you through the nodes.
