Understanding Parenting in Blender

  • Last selected is the parent.
  • Last selected colour light orange
  • Childrens selected colours dark orange
  • A parent can become a child for another parent, creating a grand parent.
  • Mode: Object Mode
  • Menu: Object ➤ Parent
  • CTRL + P for parenting
  • ALT + P for deparenting
  • Usefull in mechanical objects

snap an object to another objects surface using the snapping feature.

Deform and project objects with LATTICE MODIFIER

  1. This is much better than using Shrink Wrap alone
  2. Add lattice ➤ Scale up
  3. Select Lattice ➤ Data ➤ Make it 2D Eg: Resolution ➤ U V W {10,1,10}
  4. Select Projecting item, then lattice. CTRL + P ➤ Object (Keep Transform). Now the lattice_object is the parent.
  5. Select the projecting object ➤build Go to Add Modifiers ➤
  6. Try to play with lattice. You will understand the behaviour
  7. Select Lattice ➤ build Add Shrinkwrap modifier

Align an array of objects

  1. Add modifier ➤ Array modifier
  2. Add modifier ➤ ShrinkWrap Modifier

Boolean Algebra Operator Precedence

Boolean Precedence Visualizer Enter a Boolean expression using T (true), F (false), ! (NOT), && (AND), || (OR), and () . Click 'Evaluate' to see the order of operations. Evaluate Evaluation steps will appear here. Operator precedence in Boolean algebra Operator precedence (also called operator order) tells you which Boolean operation is evaluated first when an expression contains several operators and no parentheses. Using precedence correctly avoids ambiguity and helps you evaluate or simplify expressions step by step. Common precedence order (highest → lowest) Priority Operator(s) Typical symbol(s) Description 1 (highest) Parentheses / Grouping ( ... ) Force evaluation of the grouped subexpression first 2 NOT (negation) ¬, !, ~ ...

A. Setting up Google sheets Make two columns in your spreadsheet. The first column should be called "Date" and the second column should be called "Visitors". B. Add get and post methods in Apps Script Your Spreadsheet ID, is in between d/{spreadsheet ID}/edit const SPREADSHEET_ID = "Your spreadsheet ID"; const SHEET_NAME = "Sheet1"; function doGet(e) { if (e.parameter.log) { incrementToday(); } return getHeatmapData(); } function incrementToday() { const ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById(SPREADSHEET_ID); const sheet = ss.getSheetByName(SHEET_NAME); const today = Utilities.formatDate(new Date(), ss.getSpreadsheetTimeZone(), "yyyy-MM-dd"); const data = sheet.getDataRange().getValues(); let found = false; for (let i = 0; i { if (row[0] && row[1]) { result[Math.floor(new Date(row[0]).getTime() / 1000)] = Number(row[1]); } }); const callback = "handleCalData"; // JSON...

Law OR Form AND Form 1. Identity Law P + 0 = P P ⋅ 1 = P 2. Idempotent Law P + P = P P ⋅ P = P 3. Commutative Law P + Q = Q + P P ⋅ Q = Q ⋅ P 4. Associative Law P + (Q + R) = (P + Q) + R P ⋅ (Q ⋅ R) = (P ⋅ Q) ⋅ R 5. Distributive Law P + (Q ⋅ R) = (P + Q) ⋅ (P + R) P ⋅ (Q + R) = (P ⋅ Q) + (P ⋅ R) 6. Inversion Law (A′)′ = A (A′)′ = A 7. De Morgan's Law (P + Q)′ = P′ ⋅ Q′ (P ⋅ Q)′ = P′ + Q′ 8. Complement Law P + P′ = 1 P ⋅ P′ = 0 9. Domination Law P + 1 = 1 P ⋅ 0 = 0 ...
