zoom viewport

[rappet]

Hi Paul,

In the standalone it is possible to zoom in and out in the Render Viewport (with keeping same render resolution).
would taht be a possible function for the standalone?

with kind regards,

Hi Jeroen. Render image scaling is done via the host app rather than the Octane engine. In the case of ArchiCAD, the render image is displayed via an ArchiCAD bitmap GUI object - which does not provide any zoom functionality, so the plugin would need to zoom the bitmap contents prior to setting those contents to the viewport bitmap, which introduces some other issues. So in summary, it is possible, but complex, and the effort required to implement this would not be justified by the benefit, so has not been implemented to date.

Ok, thanx for explaining. Not a big thing anyway, but I was wondering.
