View shifts when rendering axonometry

PVBergkrantz — Tue, 28 Aug 2018 13:42:20 GMT

Hello. I've set up a 3d axonometry view, looking straight down to render a top view image using the built in CineRender in ArchiCAD 21. However when I press render the view shifts, zooming out to fit everything in screen, and then starts rendering. If I redo it, that is going back to the view, pressing render again, it sometimes keeps the view without zooming out (something like 20% of the time). The model is pretty complex, with meshes and lots tree objects, could this be an issue?

Anyone else experiencing this or have any idea what might be going wrong?

I believe I experienced this some time ago, though it might have been with elevations. Try to middle click in your saved 3D-view (pan), but do not drag. That might keep it not zooming out just before rendering. That's if I remember it all right.

Thank you! This, in combination with turning on Render Safe Frame seems to work (most of the time at least)! Still makes it impossible to do batch renderings though but at least I have a sort of secure way of getting images out.

On further inspection it seems middle clicking is not necessary, it is sufficient to just turn on "Render safe frame".
