I did and it slowed down very very much.

Hi Leif,


I had the same thing with the render window being taller than my screen. I had to change my screen orientation from horizontal to vertical to get the extra vertical resolution to click on the save icon.


I'd consider it a bug, and a mean one at that especially since you have to wait so long for the render only to find out you can't save it. :mad:


In my opinion, the devlopers need to make it so the V-Ray window won't size more than your screen size. (Just add scroll bars guys!) That or let us move the window by dragging on the window itself.


A trick that might work for you though is to click on the render window. Press and release the Alt key. Press the down arrow key once then hit enter. ;) That should bring up the save dialog...


-Jack.

Thank you Jack;


It brought up a save dialog but it was "Save Layout" dialog not "Save Render to File" dialog.


but no harm done, test only not real work render.

I am surprised I missed that one, granted when testing I was more concerned with rendering quality and such and not on size, hmm.


I found that just grabbing the bottom right corner and scaling it up or down will make the title bar barely visible at the top and you can grab it and move it after that and save your image, but I agree it needs some attention.

Wow!


Temporary solution: assign hotkey to the icon :)


I also ctrl-dragged the icon down to bottom toolbar, inside Vray render group.

After closing tS and starting it again, the icon sizes changed and aspect of "save to file" icon was 1d, here screenshot;

Edit: After pushing Vray render button, that toolbar went back to its original size. However when tS program is restarted same thing happens with toolbar as in screenshot above.


Edit 2:

grabbing the bottom right corner and scaling it up or down

- Yes, thank you daybe.

It didn't go unnoticed.

I posted this bug in the proTeam beta forum............:(


Maybe it would be simpler to give proTeam access to the real beta forum but also provide periodic "stable" releases for proTeam members that are less adventurous?


Sometimes I felt like I was the only serious proTeam tester, since mostly everyone else was part of the beta test team and I didn't have access to that forum. :(

I've just been playing with vray speeds tests and noticed another workaround that might help ...


I noticed that if you have a render window already open, all new renders, no matter what size, will use the same window without resizing it. So perfom a quick render at a small custom size say 100x100, resize the render window to show as much or as little of the final render as you want, leave the render window open, select the final render size and hit the render button again...
