Hi there, we are trying to automate our studio´s rendering workflow as much as possible. We already figure out how to automate almost everything related to octane except the "load background image" which currently seems to be manually set up by right clicking on Settings tree each time we need to recover a properly setup rendering. The rest of the setting are easily recovered using "snapshots".
Is it any way we are missing that makes this background loading process scriptable? we do have python skills if necessary.
I can figure out two solution to our current problem that could be implemented in future releases.
- One is to include background image in the RenderTarget settings. Once the render scene is setup, we could easily recover the settings using Rhino´s "Snapshots", including the background image, which currently is not saved in the RenderTarget settings.
- The second solution that comes to my mind is that "Load Background Image" method would be exposed not only as a context menu option, but also as a Rhino command, since Rhino command are easily scriptable. So it would be great if "Load Background Image" method would be implemented also as a Rhino Command.
As I said, this in the only step that the current implementation forces user interaction each time we need recover a configured scene.
Thanks
