Alignment in CineRender

Bob Moore

I'm having a problem with aligning a surface in CineRender. A client needed a rendering with his logo on a sign on the side of his building. I used his logo to create a surface I applied to a wall and aligned the edge and it worked in the generic 3D view but when I rendered it in CineRender the edges weren't aligned.

I went back to the surface options and tried different combinations, turned the random order on and off, etc. I made sure to click the Align option on the Creating Image Command under Documents. nothing seems to make it align with the edge of the sign. 

 

I have attached 2 jpegs showing the generic 3D and the rendered version.

 

Thanks

Are you altering the setting in the 'Cineware' settings or just the 'basic' or 'hardware acceleration' engine settings?

You see only the 'basic' or 'hardware acceleration' engines in the Archicad 3D window.

BINGO!

I had unchecked the Random Order with the Basic Engine but not the one on the CineRender engine.
