Render Region / render selcted objects

[tricky]

I don't think this is possible, but quite often, I'd like to just do a region render, and have the region size dictated by the extent of the selected objects.

Is this possible?
Can it be made possible?

If I've understood right your request, have you tried with the region selected option??

Yikes!
I'd better check. Our office was convinced you couldn't do that...

WOW It does?! I just posted topic about it in wish list Gota check it out straight away !

Edit : Nop it doesn't :/ or I need to use vray vbr?

Edit 2 : Nop VBR doesn't work either :/

Works for me. You need to set the "Area to Render" to "Region" and you need to turn on the "Auto Region Selected" button.

Yeaa...its not really what I'm looking for or how mental works... The way mental render its rendering only selected object...which could be any shaped...(render only selected object nothing else around it) The way region selected works it create big square around the object... which render everyting....

For example.. If I render car using mental and click on selected object, then only car body will get render... In Vray case I will get car body + all that was inside the box... (half wheel probably, lights, lamps, window etc etc..)
