Photo alignment problem

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 10:35:33 GMT

I am trying to compile an image showing a proposed fence extension to a local stadium. I have used a photo for background in 3D and PhotoRender windows (full size photo, no cropping, exactly the same size for 3D and photoRender), and used Align View command. I then had to tweak the view slightly to get correct alignment, including rolling the camera slightly in the 3D projection settings. When I then render the image the alignment with the background is out, and it seems to be the camera roll that is causing it.
Does anyone know how to get around this, and why the PhotoRender image would not take the camera roll into consideration?

The LW rendering doesn't rotate the same way the camera does....

You must fix the image in Ye Olde Photoshoppe.

Thought that might be the case, thanks Dwight.

You'd think LightWorks would just render whatever the camera is looking at, would you not?

yet another implementation issue.
