How I think Render Region should work Tweet

[Greg]

Hi Paul - I made a video of how I think RR should work. Goals being:

* you should be able to click-choose a material, white point, focal distance with RR active

* you should be able to cam navigate in the viewport with RR active

* RR 'remembers' it's last known coords. So if I turn it off and turn it back on...it's in the same place until I click and drag to change it.

I think this is all possible..as long as MODO can distinguish between click....click-drag...and alt click-drag.

Greg, try out the octane 4 beta for modo

Render region has been changed

"- Changed the way Render Region works. It now persists if the render is restarted, a new scene is loaded, or other pickers are selected. Rightclick the Viewport to cancel the Render Region"

oh...lol. Ok, guess that wasn't necessary.

Can you have 3 and 4 installed at the same time? I have some 'in progress' projects I don't want to risk by installing 4.

I've set this up, but it's not easy. It requires you to set up multiple modo shortcuts with different arguments, pointing to different user config directories.
