Hi,  
I am using the LookingGlass plugin and trying to record quilts.  
I have noticed that the focal distance is reset when we change timestep frame. This means that if I select an ideal focal distance for my quilt, when I record it, it is reset to the default value after the first timestep. Could this be prevented?  
Cheers,

Martin
