Title: Image upscaling factor below 1.0
Post by: kenezgergely on 2024-06-06, 14:48:08

Hi, I'm new to the forum but I hope this is the right place to mention this.

It would be nice to have the possibility to decrease the 'Image upscaling factor' in the System settings below 1.0.
Although the implementation of this feature was exactly the opposite, to have a better running IR on large resolution displays, I recently had to go back to FHD from 4k and I miss the ability to have bigger resolution interactive images, to copy-paste into messages to colleagues, etc.

Some limit would sure be useful, maybe 0.5 is enough (or slightly lower), if this could work like 1:2 preview, and full resolution once zoomed in.

Definitely would not be a frequently used setting, but thought it is worth sharing, since pc configs develop a lot faster than screen resolution.
Also while I really like 4k, having a 27-32" min. size is not optimal for every scenario.

In the newest Corona 12 daily build (https://forum.corona-renderer.com/index.php?topic=41598.0) you can set a custom IR resolution and then zoom out. I guess that should work as good as "upscaling below 1". :)

Hi Maru
Im enjoying the newest VFB, could we have an upscaling above 1.0?
Sometimes its very handy to upscale resolution, using a "real zoom" like in Vray from the VFB would be very nice too, im not very used to use the 2d Pan Zoom Mode especially if I want to analize the materials in detail.

Both the old and new VFB support upscaling above 1.0. (see screenshot) Could you explain what exactly you mean?

We can look into it, but for now using the 3ds Max 2D Pan Zoom Mode is the solution.

Hi Maru, maibe the word "upscale" its confused
The upscaling its just zooming the window, what I meant is to increment the resolution of the image like the VFB of Vray does, in there you can render at 10% of  the render size or 150% max
