      Eh..Watkins, it's still the white background and not the exact web page format, with black background and the exact formatting that I want the pdf to be. 😕

      Hello,

      since V1.48, the render window has been remoted because of bugs. Normally, it will be restored in the next version. 😉

      any news when it's gonna be released?

      Can you not simply move them out of that folder? Customize Settings (the wrench) > Bookmarks > Bookmark Manager
      Just select and move all your bookmarks to the appropriate folders. Maybe that's too simple.

      i'll have to do it selecting folder one by one. there's no such thing as holding control and selecting multiple folder/web shortcut 😞

      @andybot said:

      My workaround for this is to do the copying and pasting with the vray plugin disabled. (actually, I just do my copy and paste on another machine instead of the one I have vray on.)

      👍 Works, nice trick 👍 wish i had done that earlier

      Change it to something high indeed but also press the check button. I think that will trigger the next update.

      so far so good, it works. THanks 😄

      Maybe PrimoPDF is worth a try. Has worked with most file types for me - it works as a 'virtual printer', and supposedly handles 300+ file types.
      There's a free version that has always done everything I needed - download from HERE

      i tried this it doesn't work, same white background pdf 😞

    • Chrome- Deleteing the main “imported” folder?

      I backup my chrome bookmarks as html file before cleaning my pc. Now on importing my all old bookmarks, chrome makes an annoying importd folder in my bookmark menu. This folder contains all my subfolders i.e.

      Imported > Sketchup, Entertainment, furniture design, movie stuff, etc.
      With passage of time my bookmarks look like
      Imported> Imported, many other folders> Imported> more folders

      Now i want to delete this “imported” chief folder and put all my other bookmark folder in the open in the bookmarks bar drop down menu of chrome. How should I edit the html file?

    • RE: Superfast Isolated Test rendering?

      @andybot said:

      ...you see enough of the LC pass and then just do that area. For test renders though, that's why I suggest turning off any of your high-poly layers, or disable displacement in your materials (two of the things that really slow down a render. That and having too many lights...)

      eh what's LC pass? 😛

      @john2 said:

      Is there any way to like i get an isolated render of that material in a small window or select just that material to get rendered and get processed before vray shows a render screen? I often end up wasting time to just take a look at material previews in render.

      1. you can render just a window (little teapot and red rectangle button) in your VFB (vray frame buffer - the window that shows your current rendering) . That's what I do all the time as I tweak materials & lighting.

      for that to happen you have to eventually start a render 😛 and then select that red teapot window isn't it or is there a better way to just select the area that i wanna render before vray process that superheavy scene ? lol!

    • Vray Progress blue filling box?

      In old version of vray there used to be a rectangular box [just like we see in during software installation] that used to get blue filling with render progress. In the newer version there’s no such thing. With that box we used to get an idea that how much rendering has been done and how much is left. Is there something i need to switch on? And is there any plugin or macro kinda thing to know how much time is remaining in rendering a scene?
