Title: IPR loops with Material/Map Navigator open
Post by: NicolasC on 2018-03-30, 14:44:57

Hello :)

Regular bug I'm facing: IPR seems to be stuck as long as Material/Map Navigator is open (Compact Mat Editor). It will continue updating/refining the scene correctly ONLY after the Material/Map Navigator has been closed. Please check this video capture: https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cFevl5DCgb (https://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cFevl5DCgb)

Regards.

Hello,

Any chance to fix this one, please ?

Thank you.

The map/mat browser generates constant callbacks, especially if you set it to display scene or material editor materials. I guess it's not something that Corona devs can fix, I could be wrong of course...

Hmmm ok. Not the kind of answers I was hoping to get, but thanks to both of you for your feedback ;)

You can try for yourself - with a scene with 100+ materials, set it to list all scene materials, now try to rename a material, it'll be noticeably slower. That's because it constantly checks scene materials and updates. Not something that can be done outside of adesk.

I am not able to reproduce this (max 2018, Corona 27.03.2018).
IR works normally when the navigator is open.
Also, the navigator only lists one material for me (the one which is currently selected in the material editor - not sure why).
Any more details + help how to reproduce this would be appreciated.

Apart testing with a scene with many materials, I don't see ...
