Re: Progress and time of photo rendering (Create photo with renderer plug-in)
enkonyito,
Your plug-in is great but I encountered some issues.

1) When "Apply proportions" is set to "3d view", changing image width to any value always makes height = 2,147,483,647; new height value makes width = 0.
Switching back from "Square", "4/3" and other proportions presets (that work fine) also causes this unwanted effect. If I want my image to keep proportions of 3d view but I need to change size I have to do it via standard "Create photo" window.

2) "Create photo with renderer" window doesn't fit to my screen height(1024x600px) - I don't see "Create", "Save" and "Close" buttons, even if I move or hide task bar. I use Tab key but I have to carefully count hits to avoid accidental skipping "Save" button when I'm finally satisfied with my image.

I would be grateful for fixing it.

alax,

1) When "Apply proportions" is set to "3d view", changing image width to any value always makes height = 2,147,483,647; new height value makes width = 0.

I can not reproduce it even by displaying the 3D view in a separate window.
Is this occasional or systematic?
Have others met the same kind of problem?

2) "Create photo with renderer" window doesn't fit to my screen height(1024x600px) - I don't see "Create", "Save" and "Close" buttons, even if I move or hide task bar.

This will be fixed in the next version of the plugin that will be soon available.

Re: Progress and time of photo rendering (Create photo with renderer plug-in)
Thanks for reply.

- With 3D view docked (in main window) everything works fine.
- When I open "CPwR" first and then detach 3D view - it also works fine.
- Problem occurs every time I open "CPwR" when 3D view window is already floating(in my case - almost all the time). What I forgot to mention in my previous post - resizing this floating 3D view window manually(dragging edges) makes no changes to width and height fields in "CPwR".

Have others met the same kind of problem?

Apparently, only me and I wink

have met this problem - it happens on my both laptops - WinXP and Win7(32-bit).

This will be fixed in the next version of the plugin that will be soon available.

By following your procedure, I was able to test the bug and find a solution. smile

In case of problems with previous links (unavailability of sourceforge), use the one attached.

Re: Progress and time of photo rendering (Create photo with renderer plug-in)
I had a lot of issues with the default render engine, especially the quality of the image (yes I disable ceiling lights and add lights myself) ..

I got strange art-effects, white spots, dark spots -> know issues, never get fixed. I really couldn't found any solution. Exporting & importing to Blender is an alternative way, but way to complicated for now. . Until I found this plugin. Although I have still strange white spots with this plugin :(. It could because of my chandelier (lot of glass)...

Maybe I'm too harsh, I really like that you put effort into the rendering engine. Kudos for that! cool

Don't get me wrong. But the future could be to switch to a better engine? Like from Blender perhaps.

I really like Sweet Home 3D actually, but the render engine should get replaced by a more modern engine using GPU.

This plug-in also uses the default rendering engine.

But the future could be to switch to a better engine? Like from Blender perhaps.

Change rendering engine means respecting certain conditions for open source software like Sweet Home 3D.
