Title: Corona Light Texmap viewport visibility
Post by: zaar on 2024-11-19, 09:05:33

Hi!

I just want to get it confirmed that I'm not missing something and that Corona Light doesn't display the applied Texmap on the Corona Light (rectangle) in the viewport?

If it could, it would be useful for product visualisation when applying gradients and such to rectangluar lights. To seem the mapping of it in the viewport directly before rendering.


It would also be very cool if we VraySoftbox was ChaosSoftbox and available in both renderers! It's a super simple map, I can't imagine it would take an actual programmer many hours to make something like that. I'm even thinking of going through the hoops of having a chatbot create a softbox map for me in OSL.

Don't forget that the place for ideas for new features (softbox idea) is over on the Ideas Portal at https://chaoscorona.ideas.aha.io/ - thanks!

I did that now, thanks for the hint.

And just to check, there's no display of the texmap on the Corona lights? And it's not me doing something wrong?
