I just checked this and it was working OK for me. Are you just shutting closing and then opening the plugin, or shutting down ArchiCAD?
I tried both and It does not save in both cases.

After having used the plugin and rendered I got a Archicad quick quit when trying to select an image that is on the layout.
I'm not sure what you mean by "select an image that is on the layout". Which layout are you referring to pls?
not the viewmaps, but the higer level is the layout, where you can add more viewmaps, images, text on A3 or other layout.

I just re-checked and it is working perfectly for me. I'm sorry - I can't reproduce this issue.

Hi Paul,
About "The plugin does not seem to remember the save rendertarget to view?"
It works fine when having a new file started.
The one file I am having the issue with is originally a 1.2/1.5 plugin Archicad file. Maybe there is a problem?
so I opened another old Archicad file to see if this issue is there as well... and it works fine.
So.. maybe it is just in this one old Archicad file. Let us not waste any more time on this
Donnie Brasco would say: "Forget about it"

Maro has also reported this issue to me. If you have a relatively small pln file which produces this problem, pls send it to me and I will work out what if going wrong.

I have fixed the problems reported by Jeroen and Maro in the next release. The details are:
- Fixed issue where deleting a rendertarget from a view was not working
- Fixed issue where if a rendertarget saved to a view had the same name as a material, it would not be saved
This release should be available in the next few days.

Hi Paul,
Archicad 18 is out, when do you think you can make the plugin for it?
Many greetings,
Artur

hi Paul,
If I want to scale my material, I have to manually adjust the Transform node for specular, bumb and so on.
Change texture scale in one command instead of many wouldbe great. Is that possible?

Hi Jeroen - this has been requested previously, and I've done some preliminary work on it, but it is not straightforward, but can be done. So yes, it is planned for the future.
