How can I: Set locations for rendering photos?
Hi
I am creating a building and i would like to render some photos of different 3d views.
Is it possible to set up a batch file which allows me to create certain viewpoints and then render images with certain settings from all the viewspoint one after another?
Example: Set 10 viewpoint in the evening hours, when you return to your PC in the morning, you have 10 nicely rendered photos waiting for you.
If this is not possible, i would like to make it a feature request.

Hans, I'm not sure you completely understood what Olaf requested because I don't remember anybody requested such a batch feature.
Batch files aren't user friendly and I think it would be nicer to achieve this feature with a plug-in that calls PhotoRenderer methods for each location the user would choose first in the 3D view. Read PhotoPanel class to see how PhotoRenderer class can be used.

Emmanuel,
I think I read somewhere that you said that a future version will support making a movie of a trip around your house. I assumed that would come close enough to what Ong asked. You could always extract single shots from the complete movie, even though I realize that's not exactly the same as a batch file that takes a series of single pictures.
Sorry :-)

Don't be sorry Hans, you're not wrong: a movie is a set of multiple images.
