Batch render AC21 teamwork bug?

R Muller

I set up a batch render in AC21 teamwork, saving views using view settings: PhotoRendering window, OpenGL, General Purpose Balanced. These views do give me renderings when I click on each one individually and I can save the images individually.

However, when I try to publish these images and save as files (I separately tried .tif, .png, .jpg, and .pdf) all I get for each image is a blank view with the sky and land background colors and no other content. I also tried reserving the views before rendering, but this made no difference.

Publishing did work for the same views and publisher set after I abandoned the teamwork model and saved as a stand-alone model. I am using teamwork on Mac.

I am wondering what is the File Path you set for these published Rendering Views, or if the path specified could have anything to do with this.

In both cases I was saving to the same folder on my local desktop. The files were saved from teamwork, but each has only the background. See example enclosed.

I don't have anything I could recommend you to try.
I will report this to GRAPHISOFT.

Thank you. The workaround is to do all the rendering outside of Teamwork.
