align view problems -need help!-

Anonymous
Not applicable
I am following the directions in the ALIGN VIEW intro posted on ArchiGuide, however, I cannot get a camera to be placed. I receive one of two errors:

"Unable to place camera! Check data entered or try with different points!"

or

"Error while creating the perspective camera!"

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I have tried moving the photo around the plan but this isn't helping.

1: keep trying - the sequence of node placement must be exactly right.

2: you have an impossible situation of some kind - post a screen shot.

Please see these posts on problems with distortion. You cannot align to a distorted photo.
