VFB maxscript access

[NicoC]

Hello

I'm currently writing a little script to assist us in submitting rendering, especially by checking several options and so on. Among others, I need to check that VFB region rendering is off, no problem, but apparently this checking always opens the VFB ... it's just annoying, but I'd like to know if it's possible to avoid this useless opening ?

Thanks in advance for your help !

Regards.

Hi,

It works fine with vrayVFBGetRegionEnabled() in our tests and VFB stays closed.
Which V-Ray build you are using?

Hello,

We use VRay v3.0.0.06. So far, I use:

vrayVFBSetRegionEnabled false
vfbControl #trackmouse false

I don't understand your example, isn't vrayVFBGetRegionEnabled() read-only ?

Thanks in advance !

Regards.

Ah I thought that you need to check the option status only. In this case you could use the following code:
vfbControl #trackmouse false #hide

VFB will be hidden automatically right after the option is changed to "disabled".

Ah great, thanks !
adding #hide actually works for vrayVFBSetRegionEnabled false, but not for vfbControl #trackmouse false ... MXS Listener returns this message "[vfbControl] command #hide is unknown: Unsuccessfull execution".
Any idea, please ?

Thanks !

Hi,

Actually I see now that this option is not added to the 3.x official builds. It is available in the stable nightly builds according to the information that I have.
Most probably it will be part of the next service pack for V-Ray 3.

Ok, thks for the information
