Corona 1.6 VFB

[Lwmotion]

Just got my hands on the new 1.6 release and very happy about the improvements.
While testing... I went to launch Show VFB window and got no response.
Click... nothing, click... nothing. I know you can now launch the VFB as a stand alone
app/utility which is great but shouldn't it still function in Max? I wound up quitting Max
and re-opening the scene, except this time the VFB opened without a hitch. Is version
1.6 still being bug tested and not ready for production?

My system specs:
3ds Max 2016 SP3 (Viewport set to: Nitrous Direct3d 11)
Corona Render 1.6 [Build timestamp: Apr 24 2017 11:39:06]
Windows 7 64bit Prof. SP1
Nvidia GeoForce 980Ti (Driver 378.49)

were you using interactive with docked vfb at the time by any chance?

[Lwmotion]

Yes, I was working with interactive at the time but I had also tried disabling interactive
and launching the VFB but it still didn't work. Only after restarting Max did VFB work.

[Ondra]

the way it works now is that if the last render was via docked interactive VFB, then the button does not work unless you do a render in the regular VFB. We should probably improve this.
