I'm sorry to have to say it, but I think (among other things) the VFB 2 is in need of some attention. It's very unintuitive and the documentation doesn't help.
For example. How the hell do I create a folder to put a set of CC layers in (above the effects layers)? The option is greyed out and I cannot find an explanation in the documentation. I've done it before but I cannot work out how on earth to do it again... Why can I not just right click > add folder??
If I'm in Composite mode, wouldn't it be more intuitive to allow me to add multiple layers automatically to a folder when I click + > folder with multiple layers selected (ala photoshop) As it stands now with several layers selected, the dropdown + menu just disappears immediately...
If I'm in Composite mode, wouldn't it be more intuitive to drag a mask from one layer to swap or alt + drag to overwrite a mask on another layer (ala photoshop)?
If I'm in Composite mode, wouldn't it be more intuitive to allow to drag and drop or right click > copy a mask name (next to 'properties') and paste it to another layer?
The curves editor is on crack. If I accidentally move a point outside the grid, it's seemingly gone for good? Why does it assume when I click my mouse vertically above a point, it wants me to instantly teleport that point to my mouse position? All undoable of course, just veryyyyyy frustrating...
Can we get some more options for backgrounds? Rotation? Skew? Scale?
Can we get an option to append certain layers from a saved preset instead of just wiping the current stack all together?
Perhaps some colour coding wouldn't be a bad idea for helping one understand which parts of the stack can be moved or have adjustments applied to them?
I feel like there's nobody asking the question 'is this intuitive' before certain things are implemented/changed in vray... I have to say that's one thing that I really like about Corona is it just feels 'intuitive' and that's something that is perhaps missing in Vray in certain aspects.
Maybe it's hard for the devs who design these aspects to see how 'n00bs' end up struggling with what seemed like an awesome design choice at the time, in which case I would be glad to give some feedback to a dev that is happy to hear it, as I think 'real user feedback' is pretty invaluable.
Not hating, just trying to give some honest feedback!
