Title: Ability to lock the size of the VFB in interactive mode
Post by: ufoufo on 2017-07-07, 17:53:53
Hello everyone,

Here is a small idea, but that would make the use of interactive rendering very nice: have the ability to lock the size of the VFB ... because windows change it quite often and when the scene is heavy, it's a bit annoying.

Thank you, and bravo for your incredible render ! I fell in love with corona !

To be honest i don't like at all how Corona is constantly changing VFB size. It used to be much better when it didn't fiddle with VFB. I wish there would be checkbox somwhere in dev tab "leave VFB alone!".

This change is making us crazy. The constant frame buffer size change is very unwelcome. It used to not be like this right?

Especially after rendering HR images and opening this file again, IR VFB first time run jumping to render full resolution///:)
With heavy scenes It's very annoying...

+1 for some sort of "lock" function or a user defined IR size. Can't figure out how this works at the moment, except that it never does what I want it to... ;)

+1 to "lock VFB size" option

that is a one thing that potentially could freeze my max, and yes that annoyed me oftenly.
I vote for this IR ability, +1!
but I hope it is possible if we lock the IR VFB size and the main output size is changed then the IR size will be able to change following output size ratio.

Something similar already on Mantis here:

https://corona-renderer.com/bugs/view.php?id=2741

So it could get a lock size + zoom level option maybe.


Good Luck

+1 from me too.
hires final heavy scenes are a big problem when you hit interactive.

Some final render ratio buttons would be cool
1/10 ¼ ½ etc

thanks

An resolution override and lock for IR would be really great.

Hello everyone,
I come back to my post because really, this window that grows steadily is really unbearable. It would not matter if you worked with three polygons in the scene. But with Forest and Railclone, millions or billions of polygons, it's really very annoying.
The idea is just to add on the VFB an icon like a padlock for example, locked by default. That's all, nothing more.
If this is not possible technically, it would have to work with a normal window, like for a rendering of production.
Thank you !

Digging this one up again as ive not heard anything about it in ages. It still annoys me to this day. If i have interactive fullscreen and go to move the window, it automatically resizes itself and i have to wait around for it to do its thing. Unless you have 3 screens its a productivity nightmare the way it is currently to have max, SME and IR open at once. Please let us lock the size!

Its not really a feature request, more a behavioural change and these things tend to get buried.

Might this make an appearance in v4 Maru?
Literally the most irritating part of working with IR...

I would not count on it for v4, as its one of those request devs ignore since 2014... and they literally come back each month.
