00:00:05:23 - 00:00:09:05
So as
I mentioned, there's a couple of small

00:00:09:06 - 00:00:12:06
tweaks
to lines of code that we need to do.

00:00:13:00 - 00:00:16:00
So let me just find.

00:00:17:16 - 00:00:20:24
The model that we were working with,

00:00:22:16 - 00:00:25:16
this is the Json file that we exported.

00:00:26:07 - 00:00:28:20
And what you can see that
contains is just a

00:00:28:20 - 00:00:31:25
lot of information
isn't really human readable.

00:00:32:12 - 00:00:36:19
however, what we're looking for,
I think, is that section in the middle

00:00:36:19 - 00:00:39:19
there. Yes.

00:00:41:22 - 00:00:42:20
Yeah.

00:00:42:20 - 00:00:44:03
So let's make everybody dizzy.

00:00:44:03 - 00:00:47:13
So there's a section in the middle
that we're focusing on,

00:00:47:13 - 00:00:51:14
a very specific bit of this,
which is this DB name.

00:00:54:05 - 00:00:57:29
So the DB name is blender

00:00:57:29 - 00:01:00:29
and the Json referencing the material
that we created

00:01:01:13 - 00:01:04:10
inside, blender itself.

00:01:04:10 - 00:01:07:19
Now in the context of our Json file here
that we're going to put in MegaEdit,

00:01:07:26 - 00:01:12:25
that name of the material has no real
meaning, so we need to replace this

00:01:13:09 - 00:01:15:28
and add it an additional line
of config in there as well.

00:01:18:23 - 00:01:21:23
So. What we're

00:01:21:23 - 00:01:24:23
actually going to replace that with is.

00:01:25:28 - 00:01:27:08
Well we're going to make it suit

00:01:27:08 - 00:01:31:11
the page of the MegaEdit canvas
that's going to host its contents.

00:01:32:05 - 00:01:35:05
So what I mean by this,
if we are doing a dieline

00:01:35:11 - 00:01:38:00
on our MegaEdit canvas,
which is the whole product,

00:01:38:00 - 00:01:40:24
we're only going to have one page,
you know, MegaEdit product.

00:01:40:24 - 00:01:44:08
So therefore we just need to reference
this material as being page

00:01:44:08 - 00:01:46:02
one of our MegaEdit products.

00:01:46:02 - 00:01:48:16
And what that's doing is it's what?

00:01:48:16 - 00:01:52:07
So our material was our dieline
that we specified in blender.

00:01:52:20 - 00:01:56:06
This is going to make sure it's
actually referencing the corresponding

00:01:56:19 - 00:01:59:19
MegaEdit canvas,
which by the way should be the same size.

00:02:01:00 - 00:02:04:00
So if I put that in here.

00:02:04:14 - 00:02:05:17
So I've got the code already

00:02:06:24 - 00:02:08:08
copied here so I can cheat.

00:02:08:08 - 00:02:11:08
So we.

00:02:16:00 - 00:02:17:03
And the second one as well.

00:02:17:03 - 00:02:17:14
There we go.

00:02:17:14 - 00:02:20:16
So DB
name has now been replaced with catfish.

00:02:20:16 - 00:02:21:07
Page one.

00:02:21:07 - 00:02:24:07
And for those that don't know,
catfish is the old name for Infigo

00:02:25:08 - 00:02:27:07
that's specifying page one.

00:02:27:07 - 00:02:28:00
And then we've got.

00:02:28:00 - 00:02:29:21
So just

00:02:29:21 - 00:02:31:13
that's available in the step
by step guides

00:02:31:13 - 00:02:32:25
I've given you if you need to copy it

00:02:32:25 - 00:02:36:06
and all you need to change if you've got
multiple changes, is the number there.

00:02:37:13 - 00:02:39:27
and then we've got this map
diffuse as well.

00:02:39:27 - 00:02:44:09
Now my understanding of the map diffuse,
is it just giving a backup,

00:02:44:23 - 00:02:48:02
a backup file
for that particular artwork.

00:02:48:14 - 00:02:51:14
So this case, it's not my file dot png.

00:02:51:16 - 00:02:55:13
It's whatever the name of our file was
or will be that we upload to Mega, it.

00:02:56:09 - 00:02:59:07
So to use as our 2D template.

00:02:59:07 - 00:03:02:18
So I think mine was called dieline.png.

00:03:07:14 - 00:03:07:25
That's it.

00:03:07:25 - 00:03:10:25
So I can save that.

00:03:13:04 - 00:03:14:28
Now the next thing we've got

00:03:14:28 - 00:03:17:28
is the actual config code for

00:03:18:00 - 00:03:20:26
this going to be included inside

00:03:20:26 - 00:03:23:26
majorette itself
to actually configure the 3D preview.

00:03:24:14 - 00:03:27:26
So you can use Visual Studio Code again,

00:03:28:24 - 00:03:31:24
or you can utilize notepad.

00:03:35:10 - 00:03:36:25
Again I've got it copied here.

00:03:36:25 - 00:03:39:25
So I'm just going to cheat.

00:03:50:10 - 00:03:51:17
That's a lot of spaces,

00:03:51:17 - 00:03:54:17
so I'm not sure it's
going to be too happy.

00:03:58:02 - 00:03:58:19
To work with it.

00:03:58:19 - 00:04:00:19
It doesn't work. It doesn't work. right.

00:04:00:19 - 00:04:02:22
So what we need to do in here
and remember,

00:04:02:22 - 00:04:05:22
this is the config for the 3D
preview itself.

00:04:05:22 - 00:04:08:22
This will go on your MegaEdit product.

00:04:09:06 - 00:04:10:22
There's two lines we need to fill in.

00:04:10:22 - 00:04:13:29
It's the scene
link and software renderer scene.

00:04:14:10 - 00:04:15:10
And what we're looking for here

00:04:15:10 - 00:04:19:04
is a link to our Json file
that we've just been editing.

00:04:20:09 - 00:04:20:19
Now. At the

00:04:20:19 - 00:04:24:07
moment we don't have a link, but
we need to actually upload the Json file

00:04:24:25 - 00:04:27:16
and our corresponding to the die line

00:04:27:16 - 00:04:30:16
or template into our MegaEdit

00:04:30:25 - 00:04:33:22
or into our video storefront.

00:04:33:22 - 00:04:36:25
So if I go to

00:04:36:25 - 00:04:39:25
I've got a lot of pages open,
so bear with me.

00:04:45:06 - 00:04:46:16
This one here.

00:04:46:16 - 00:04:51:18
So I'm going to start this from scratch
by going to CSS overrides.

00:04:51:19 - 00:04:54:27
Now many of you will be familiar
with the CSS override area.

00:04:55:27 - 00:04:59:06
One of its functions is the ability
to upload additional resources

00:04:59:06 - 00:05:02:06
to your storefront
for use in various locations.

00:05:02:19 - 00:05:05:27
So you can see I've already got a couple
of them been uploaded into here as my.

00:05:06:27 - 00:05:09:15
So I've been practicing for this webinar.

00:05:09:15 - 00:05:12:21
I'm also going to choose our
new Json file that we have.

00:05:14:08 - 00:05:17:08
So if I go.

00:05:18:26 - 00:05:20:24
Here.

00:05:20:24 - 00:05:23:01
So I'll start to model

00:05:23:01 - 00:05:25:24
upload
and you'll see that that will give us

00:05:25:24 - 00:05:29:04
an associated link that we can utilize.

00:05:29:04 - 00:05:32:19
And that's what we need to take into
that conflict that we're currently making.

00:05:33:16 - 00:05:36:14
Now we'd also upload our

00:05:36:14 - 00:05:38:20
our 2D template as well, in the same way

00:05:38:20 - 00:05:41:20
I've already got that
from a previous iteration I have utilized.

00:05:41:25 - 00:05:43:24
So that's fine.

00:05:43:24 - 00:05:46:06
I've already got that in.

00:05:46:06 - 00:05:49:06
However, I do need to take this text here.

00:05:50:02 - 00:05:53:02
This link.

00:05:53:13 - 00:05:56:00
Go back to my config.

00:05:56:00 - 00:05:59:06
Then I'm going to paste that
in both of those top two sections.

00:05:59:14 - 00:06:02:14
But I'm going to replace
that unique identifier that I with zero.

00:06:07:24 - 00:06:10:24
So a little bit of messing around
with the lines of code, but not too much.

00:06:10:26 - 00:06:11:22
That's all we need to do.

00:06:15:20 - 00:06:18:11
So let's put that to one side.

00:06:18:11 - 00:06:21:03
Now I'm
going to create our MegaEdit product.

00:06:21:03 - 00:06:24:11
So same way as you would normally create
the MegaEdit products.

00:06:24:11 - 00:06:27:11
No difference in this particular scenario.

00:06:27:15 - 00:06:29:19
So I'm going to rush through this.

00:06:29:19 - 00:06:32:19
If I go to product management,

00:06:32:19 - 00:06:34:13
add new,

00:06:34:13 - 00:06:36:22
choose MegaEdit products.

00:06:36:22 - 00:06:39:08
Let's put

00:06:39:08 - 00:06:42:08
3D preview webinar.

00:06:47:04 - 00:06:47:27
And then we're going to jump

00:06:47:27 - 00:06:50:27
straight to our MegaEdit config.

00:06:52:03 - 00:06:54:01
Now again
most of you should be familiar with this.

00:06:54:01 - 00:06:55:19
I think.

00:06:55:19 - 00:06:57:07
And a couple of changes
we're going to make.

00:06:57:07 - 00:06:59:01
One is the number of pages.

00:06:59:01 - 00:07:02:10
We're using only one page,
because our entire die

00:07:02:10 - 00:07:05:10
line is going to be on the one page.

00:07:08:18 - 00:07:11:29
If I scroll down a bit,
I'm going to make sure my preview type

00:07:11:29 - 00:07:16:22
is using 3D preview, which will be available to you if you have the the module.

00:07:17:28 - 00:07:19:23
And then we've got our preview config.

00:07:19:23 - 00:07:22:23
Now this is where I'm just going to copy
and paste.

00:07:25:23 - 00:07:28:23
From here.

00:07:38:01 - 00:07:41:01
Okay I'm going to save that.

00:07:43:13 - 00:07:43:29
Now again

00:07:43:29 - 00:07:47:00
as we normally would,
we've got our specification

00:07:47:00 - 00:07:50:14
of required resources and optional
resources to use in the model.

00:07:50:26 - 00:07:54:11
So the required ones
canvas stock output type,

00:07:54:18 - 00:07:57:19
optional ones, things like quick arts
fonts,

00:07:59:18 - 00:08:01:26
spot covers, that kind of thing.

00:08:01:26 - 00:08:05:17
So I'm not going to go through
making those on this webinar.

00:08:05:19 - 00:08:08:13
Again. There's loads of resources
on them for you go Academy.

00:08:08:13 - 00:08:10:16
I'm just going to actually assign them.

00:08:10:16 - 00:08:13:19
The only one I'm going to point out
is the canvas,

00:08:13:24 - 00:08:17:18
because that does need to be the same size
as the

00:08:18:04 - 00:08:20:22
image that you were utilizing inside
blender itself,

00:08:20:22 - 00:08:24:00
because then it can it knows
which areas of the canvas to map to

00:08:25:29 - 00:08:27:05
areas of the image,

00:08:27:05 - 00:08:30:05
and then the 3D model.

00:08:31:22 - 00:08:35:25
So. I'm

00:08:36:18 - 00:08:39:18
assuming I'm selecting the right ones
here from my previous attempts.

00:08:50:17 - 00:08:51:08
Another one I'll draw

00:08:51:08 - 00:08:54:20
your attention to is the actual clip arts.

00:08:55:17 - 00:08:58:24
So what I'm going to do
is create or import some clip art,

00:08:59:17 - 00:09:00:18
which is not going to be visible

00:09:00:18 - 00:09:04:03
to the customer,
but is visible to the administrator.

00:09:04:13 - 00:09:07:13
And this clip art category
is going to contain the actual

00:09:07:29 - 00:09:09:16
image of the die on itself.

00:09:09:16 - 00:09:13:18
So to the template now,
it may or may not be exactly

00:09:13:18 - 00:09:16:18
the same image that utilized in blender.

00:09:16:19 - 00:09:20:11
but basically it's going to give your
customers the workspace that they need.

00:09:20:11 - 00:09:23:12
So some kind of references
to where they need to to put things

00:09:23:19 - 00:09:25:06
to get it to appear on the 3D view.

00:09:26:22 - 00:09:29:02
I'll show you those in a moment.

00:09:29:02 - 00:09:32:02
assign some more.

00:09:47:00 - 00:09:50:28
And I think that's all we need.

00:09:56:06 - 00:09:59:06
We check my notes once again.

00:10:01:24 - 00:10:03:08
Okay,

00:10:03:08 - 00:10:04:12
so let me launch this.

00:10:04:12 - 00:10:07:04
Put a config,

00:10:07:04 - 00:10:10:18
the product page,
and let's give that a launch.

00:10:10:18 - 00:10:13:18
See if I've set it all correctly.

00:10:16:13 - 00:10:17:12
And there we go.

00:10:17:12 - 00:10:19:29
So one thing I'll point out here and again
is because there's

00:10:19:29 - 00:10:22:00
there's multiple ways of setting this up.

00:10:22:00 - 00:10:23:28
This is just the way
I've decided to do it.

00:10:23:28 - 00:10:29:14
I've created a stock which is, let's say,
very roughly the same color

00:10:29:14 - 00:10:33:09
as the cardboard stock that we're going
to actually print our things on.

00:10:33:26 - 00:10:36:09
and the reason I've done that is

00:10:36:09 - 00:10:40:04
because our final print output file,
we don't want it to have black coloring.

00:10:40:04 - 00:10:43:15
If we assign it to the actual stock
section of MegaEdit,

00:10:44:02 - 00:10:46:24
it means that we can get that color
in the background of our preview

00:10:46:24 - 00:10:50:07
like this,
but it won't be on the final output file,

00:10:50:29 - 00:10:52:25
and that will have a knock on effect
on the image

00:10:52:25 - 00:10:54:26
I use for our die line for our templates.

00:10:54:26 - 00:10:56:22
And I'll show you that in a moment.

00:10:56:22 - 00:10:58:07
However, for the moment.

00:10:58:07 - 00:11:00:16
So we've got our canvas.

00:11:00:16 - 00:11:02:24
And if I go to preview what we should see.

00:11:05:00 - 00:11:06:19
Is our brown box because it's

00:11:06:19 - 00:11:09:26
using the canvas that we've specified
which is currently empty.

00:11:09:26 - 00:11:12:26
Apart from the coloring.

00:11:13:26 - 00:11:16:26
So there we go.
