Photoworks2 Scene floor offset

Photoworks2 Scene floor offset

Photoworks2 Scene floor offset

(OP)
I continuously have this problem where I set up a room size and change the floor offset to 0 in the scene setup.  These dimensions will reset back to Photoworks defaults if I make any other changes.  I then get the message "Please enter a valid number" twice. I do get it to work but only after a few tries and I won't know until I render. Has anyone else had this problem?

RE: Photoworks2 Scene floor offset

Yes, you are not alone. Unfortunately these are long term bugs in PhotoWorks and they are very annoying.  One thing to try, uncheck the box "resize automatically" which is found under the room size input boxes.  I find this doesn't solve the problem but does seem to help minimize the issue.

As for "please enter a valid number", this bug comes and goes.

Thanks Rob,  I'm glad it's not just something I'm doing wrong.  Hopefully we'll see some fixes eventually.

RE: Photoworks2 Scene floor offset

I created my own floor to use, and always hide the scene floor for this purpose.  I only use a floor to display/catch shadows anyway, so it works great.
