different design for each camera

  • Hi Bayader,

    I can explain how you would include the script n your project.

    Create the Script Asset

    1. In Resources, select Add New > Script
    2. Select the new Script and past the following code in the Script Editor found in the Inspector Panel:
       
      // Use in "Initialized' event

      //@input SceneObject target

      //@input bool activeOnFront

      //@input bool activeOnBack

      script.createEvent("CameraBackEvent").bind(function (eventData)

      {

          script.target.enabled = script.activeOnBack;

      });

      script.createEvent("CameraFrontEvent").bind(function (eventData)

      {

          script.target.enabled = script.activeOnFront;

      });
       
    3. Select 'Apply Changes' 

    Apply the Script to your Face Sprite

    1. Create a new SceneObject in the Objects Panel and select it.
    2. In the Inspector, select Add Component > Script
    3. On the new Script component, select "Add Script"
    4. In the selection popup, select the Script asset you created in the first section. Select 'OK'
    5. Make sure the dropdown next to the script name is set to 'Initialized'.
    6. In the Inspector, click the field labeled "Target".
    7. In the selection popup, select your Face Sprite object.
    8. In the Inspector, check the box "Active On Front"

    Apply the Script to your Billboard

    1. Create a new SceneObject in the Objects Panel and select it.
    2. In the Inspector, select Add Component > Script
    3. On the new Script component, select "Add Script"
    4. In the selection popup, select the Script asset you created in the first section. Select 'OK'
    5. Make sure the dropdown next to the script name is set to 'Initialized'.
    6. In the Inspector, click the field labeled "Target".
    7. In the selection popup, select your Billboard object.
    8. In the Inspector, check the box "Active On Back"

    Now, when you test the lens you should see the Face Sprite only on the front (selfie) camera, and you should see the Billboard only on the back (world) camera.

    Let me know if you have trouble with any of the steps I described above, and I'll be happy to help!

     

    Best,

    Peter

  • Hi Bayader,

    Here's a script that should make it easy to show content specifically on the front vs rear camera:
     
    // Use in "Initialized' event
    //@input SceneObject target
    //@input bool activeOnFront
    //@input bool activeOnBack
    script.createEvent("CameraBackEvent").bind(function (eventData)
    {
        script.target.enabled = script.activeOnBack;
    });
    script.createEvent("CameraFrontEvent").bind(function (eventData)
    {
        script.target.enabled = script.activeOnFront;
    });
     
    Add this script to objects you want to enable / disable based on camera
    Make sure they are added to the "Initialized" event
    Turn "activeOnFront" on for objects active on front camera
    Turn "activeOnBack" on for objects active on rear camera
     
    Let me know if you need clarification on how to add this to the Lens and I'd be more than happy to further assist.
     
    Cheers,
    Kaitlyn

  • 22:36:50 TypeError: cannot write property 'enabled' of undefined
    at [anon] (Script:22) preventsyield

    what does this means?

  • Hi Bayader,

    This error means that the Script Component's properties were not set up before running the script. From the steps I shared earlier, be sure to complete steps 6 - 8. This tells the script which object we're enabling/disabling when you swap cameras.

    Let me know if that works for you.

    Best,

    Peter

    P.S. Just for your information, The part that reads 

    (Script:22)

    tells us that the error is related to code on line 22 of the script : )

  • ok Thanks Peter, i messed step 6 :)

    i pushed the lens to my device and it works but when i flip more than once the things i "scripted" disappeared :(

    i'm still learning the stuff, sorry for all the questions

    another thing, how do i make a 3D particles? like the Bokeh templates? i tried to change the texture but it got cropped! and then i tried to make my setting just like the templates but it didn't work either :(

  • They're probably disappearing because the script to enable/disable the object is on the object itself. Since the object is being disabled, its script will not run. I recommend creating a new Scene Object and attaching the Script Component to it, as mentioned in step 1. Be sure to the Script Components you already placed.

    As for particles, I recommend following the Particles Template Guide: https://lensstudio.snapchat.com/templates/world/particles/

    The cropping of the textures might happen if the particle has been set to flipbook/animated when your texture is not meant to be animated.
