Ideas?

my little note would be "time" instead of "times"

Yep.. I think it would be better. Other than that seems good... Actually I have a small, maybe stupid question.. Those buttons on screenshot illustrate how they look when pressed right? Cause to me it appears as if they are being all pressed/clicked on..

Ah I see it now.. The framing on the buttons seems quite a bit agressive especially on the light theme in max.. just draws too much attention and as well it looks as if those buttons are pressed.. But I don't know, maybe it's just me.. My suggestion would be, loose the framing completely and reveal it if cursor hovers over the button..

i think it would be nice if you move sidebar from right to bottom , because most of the images are rendered at wide aspect . and also its will be cool if you add an hide/show button for that.

When you click on "tools" you will hide/unhide the sidebar. I wouldn't move it to bottom cause there is lots of info that might be hardly readable horizontaly and also colormapping controls would be harder to use.. MR has bottom panel for some controls on the vfb and it sucks imho.

What i miss in Corona's vfb, is this or similar funcionality:



It would be nice to know if it'll happen someday.

p.s. don't ditch blue accents from vfb, i like it very much :]

This is the concept we are getting VFB to look like.

Buttons are in their idle state. They are not supposed to look like Win 95 beveled buttons, but at the same height as surface around, with some sort of space around them.

When you hover over them, the space around them turns blue to imply as if there were blue LEDs under the button and glowing through that space around it. Although it's just a line, not full glow effect, to not look too fancy.

maybe another shortage in VFB is render history with an comparison tool (like nuke) to see differences between current render and previous renders .

Actually VFB history will be very useful feature. Comparison in worst case scenario is achievable through RAM player, but having all in one place will work a way better. I believe VRay VFB has it done that way.

My 2 cents:
+1 for VFB history
+1 for render region adjustable in VFB

My Ducati or a render with Corona.....mmm, hard question!

Render history is planned, as well as render region and other features.

But please, keep in mind this thread is related just to VFB look, not features.
