hi Flipya - regarding links opening in new tab, in addition to scroll-wheel clicking the link (thanks Dozer!) you can also right-click on a link and choose "open in new tab"

This 'feature' is controlled via the forum template, and is not easily changed, so hope these two options will serve you well?

Thanks Fletch and d12dozr, didn't know about the middlemousewheelclick-thingy. I usually use control+click, does the same. It's just that I'm too stupid to do it all the time Good thing my mouse has a browser-back button
Not really a throw-my-laptop-through-a-wall-category annoyance...

But what about the other suggesion I made; the passes on progressive?

[Fletch]

agree, that showing number of passes completed after stopping a progressive render could be handy.
you've written it on the wishlist, so... it's something that will be kept in mind.

If weld vertices is applied to the model which uvmaped, a texture will collapse.
Is there any schedule which will attach the function which carries out the re-map of the uvmaped model in the future in TWR?

This is actually impossible (with Twilight, SU, and most if not all renderers and modellers). When vertices are welded, they became, literally, the same vertex. That means the same position, normal, and UV. The texture gets screwed up when the previous vertices had different UV coordinates, and now they have the same UV coordinate. It's basically impossible to do anything about.

for SU of course.

Was going to suggest a few, but the "To create your own unbiased setting" post that Fletch made cleared up one - pretty neat trick!

1. Is there any way you can do an "Autosave" of the a progressive rendering at set passes? Say every 25-50 passes. I have had machines lock up a few times during rendering and have lost 24-48 hours of render time...if there was an Autosave feature, that could allow for something for the effort. If this could also put the number of passes in the autosave filename as well that would be the cherry on top.

2. Mentioned this before, but a network license is really desirable - similar to the way SketchUp does its network licensing...that way I don't have to depend on a specific machine to be free.

Thanks

I got another silly little idea: Could the titlebar of the renderwindow be made double-clickable so it fills the screen it's on, in the same way most windows in Windows behave?

Edit: another one which would actually really help my workflow: In the renderwindow I'd like a copy-button that copies the currently displayed render to the clipboard so I can just paste it in Photoshop without having to save - open

Perhaps single clicking the title bar could collapse the render window, except for the title bar, making it very easy to restore. This would work like the SU windows or palettes.

I've mentioned this before.....but.....

It would be nice to be able to apply a material template to more than one material at once.

ie: select a few materials from the twilight material menu (control click/shift click) then apply a template.

If multiple materials are selected...the material preview render should just preview the first material in the list.....or just a generic colour.
