Maxwell Render | Official public forum

Hi Guys- I am wondering if this is already available or if not if you guys think we could write a script for it.... here is what I am thinking.

Often I try to duplicate a shot, usually I am trying to set up a particular view that I can then swap out objects and hit render. This way I can achieve some consistency in my shots. So I usually have to set up materials in the Top, Right, and Front viewports leaving the view consistent and not touching the Perspective viewport. Obviously this is a pain- is there a way to "save a shot" then be able to move around the Perspective viewport setting up textures etc and then go back to the previously saved "shot".

Love to hear your comments.

Try this:

1. right-click the 'Perspective' viewport label (blue box at top-left in viewport)
2. select Set View > Named Views
3. click Save...
4. enter a name for the view and click OK

Now you can recall that view into any viewport by clicking Set View > [view name]. Each Named View gets its own set of Maxwell camera parameters.

Brilliant!!!!!!! Thanks JD as usual.... thanks barely covers it but it is all I've got

Cary, if you want to make a minor change to that named view it's very easy to save. With the adjusted view go to named views, click/highlight that named view and click save, it will update/override it.

Thanks Josephus! This will make life MUCH easier!!
