Title: Feature request for Corona Bitmap
Post by: Alessandro on 2015-05-29, 15:27:05
I start here a list of feature required for Corona Bitmap
Everybody help me to complete this list, appending, thx!

- preview in viewport
- Real-world scale
- used as env, it is horizontal flipped respect max map, it's not practical... (ref. rel 2015-05-28)
- rotation on axis, most of all Z
- if map path name is too long, you can't read map name
- I often use right mouse click on bitmap preview in mat editor to edit it with photoshop, maybe I'm not the only one

Guys, let's not add all requests into one topic. It's a lot harder for devs to keep track of things.

n00b question: why is it not possible if it is possible with other 3ds max maps/materials?

ok, do you mean drag&drop map into existing CoronaBitmap? That is possible

or drag&drop map into slate/empty material slot to create new CoronaBitmap? That is not possible, because 3dsmax hardcodes "if map is dropped here create standard Bitmap"

what I meant was drag-and-drop a file from explorer into "bitmap" slot inside corona bitmap, not sure what others meant :)
looks like it's impossible to do now

Yeah that was the only thing I (and I am sure others) meant as well :- )

As long as we can easily convert to CoronaBitmap, the first scenario (create texture from drop) isn't issue either.

I can confirm that the drag and drop feature works :)
