Photorendering Window Defaulting to 80x80 Pixels

Brad Elliott

The subject says it. I haven't been able to narrow it down in any way but I will go to photorender a model and my window will come up as 80x80 pixels. I can't remember this being a problem in the past but have encountered it frequently since in the last three or four weeks. I generally set the window size once and forget about it and move from Sketch to Lightworks as the project moves on. On the current project I have been in Lightworks for a while but today I got the 80x80 window again? Does anyone else have this problem? A solution?

Is it possible that you have programmed a view with this render size?

I have set cameras, but as far as I know I haven't Programmed a View. How would I check that?

I mean using the new-fangled naviganizer to define views - if you get something wrong there, it will persist when you choose the view.

No, I keep my cameras in the Project Map only and not in the View Map because I don't like them changing things around when I go into 3d mode to try to figure out what I'm doing.

Heh ...

You should always have the OpenGL view linked to a camera, and a duplicate rendering view. If you don't want a change, AFTER you set it from the View map, open it from the Project map and it will not mess up anything ...

When I first got AC10 and tried to do this I couldn't get the photorendering to work and kept having problems with my renderings. However I now just set them up and they are all working fine. The benefit of a year plus experience I guess. This doesn't solve the 80x80 problem but I now have an easy work around. Now off I go to change my Master Templates.
