Columbus 3 manual

3.12 Default

You can use this button to delete the created route together

with all its settings and reset the settings to their predened

values. The system asks you for conrmation rst.

3.13 Selecting objects

Columbus 3 provides a special window in which you can

select objects for the key points (also the starting and -

nishing points) and for the head of the line. Its user interface

is similar to the pattern selection function (image pool) that

you are already familiar with. The Type option allows you to

switch between 2D (at) and several three-dimensional ob-

jects. Later on, you can rotate any of the types as desired.

To select an object, simply click it in the list. The object is

shown on the right with its name and an animated preview.

You can end the selection process by clicking on Ok. If the

Ok button is locked (i.e. you cannot press it), the object in

question is only installed as a demo and therefore cannot

be used in Columbus 3.

3.14 Supplied Columbus 3 maps

These are oversized maps that allow you to scroll over

the map during the route. The maps that you see in this

selection are sorted alphabetically from A (= Africa) to V (=

Lake Victoria). Most of the maps can be selected with or

without town names; a + after the map name indicates the

difference (e.g. Spain and Spain +). Some maps also inclu-

de national borders. Since these are all maps whose size

exceeds the video resolution, only a part of the map will be

displayed if you generate an empty scene in the New (Edit)

menu.

3.15 FAQ

Question: How do you change a head object at a particular

point?

Answer: You have dened a global head object. If you want

to change it at a particular point, you must set a key point

at that position and then modify the look of this key point.

Activate the key point, open the Look menu and select the

Head object option. Set the Show head object setting to

Change and then select the new head object.

Question: Why does the camera not always follow the head

object when the camera moves across the map?

Answer: If this situation arises, activate the Camera option

in the Global settings menu. The Camera movement set-

ting is probably set to automatic and the Camera points

option is probably set to only key points. Set the latter

to all points so that the camera also moves to all of the

waypoints.

Question: Why does the head object not move when a

change of direction takes place?

Answer: In the menu for adjusting the head object settings

(Global settings and Look) you will nd the Auto direction

setting. This setting must be activated by setting a check-

mark so that the head object aligns itself with its direction

of movement.

Question: I have selected a different detail - why is it not

taken into account during the preview and calculations?

Answer: You have probably modied the Editor detail but

not the Map detail. You should dene it so that it is also

taken into account in the calculations.

Question: Why is the map constantly zoomed during the

preview and the calculations? How can this be

deactivated?

Answer: The Camera detail has probably been incorrectly

dened at some positions. Take a look at the Preview and

remember at what positions the incorrect detail appears.

Afterwards activate the key point/waypoint in that area

and check the Camera detail setting.

Question: Why can‘t I select a map in Columbus 3?

Answer: You have started the program Video Ext. mode

– you cannot select a map in this mode. Exit the program

and set the mode to Image Pool Ext. before you restart

Columbus 3.

Question: How do I restore the previous settings in order to

create a new route?

Answer: You will see the Default button on the right of the

menu. If you press it, the settings in Columbus 3 will be

reset to their default values with one starting point and one

nishing point. You can now easily create a new route.
