Photoworks question
(OP)
hi all,
Does anyone know what happened to the interactive rendering option? I'm trying to do a composite render with a real background photo, and i need to show b4 rendering to make sure my models perspective and angle is correct. thanks in advance!

RE: Photoworks question
as far as the backbround. i dont wont to have this as a background for everything i do. Just this file. with that method wont i have to remove it every time i open a different part? Also it seem to stretch the image out to wide when doing that. Any thoughts. The other method was do easy. the only thing that sucked about it was using the invisible floor to get shadows to reflect, never worked. Thanks!

In 2007 You might be able to play with your feature tree width to adjust the graphics area size to a ratio similar to your background image and this will minimize stretch. It's a trial and error thing.
In 2008 this doesn't work becasue the feature tree floats over the graphics area and adjusting it's width will have no effect. Maybe minimizing SW and adjusting it's window size would help.
Not really great answers but it may get you by?

Not the first time this has happened :)
RE: Photoworks question
It does work well in RealView and you can now see the shadowing in realtime which is nice. I think this change stems from SW integration of RealView & PhotoWorks. I think you'll see more changes in the future as the two are brought closer. It wouldn't surprise me to see RV and PW become the same product at some point. PW will either have to be provided with core SW (like animator is now) or you'll have to upgrade to have any kind of rendering ability. I just don't see how they can keep merging the two and then offering seperate products totally based on the amount of money you're willing to spend. I'm rambling.
