VRayRT RealZoom: Zoom to selected area

[Art48]

It would be REALLY cool if instead of mousewheel you could marquee a selection (jsut as the render region in the VFB) and realzoom that part of the image to fullscreen.

Ok, will make a note to look into it.

Would it work if some combination like shift+drag region, or ctrl+drag region zooms into it? And if you just drag a region, it does a region render like until now.

Hmmm... It would bear the possibility of a user error I think. I find myself often using RT for the whole image then selectng a region but want to keep the rest of the image intact. A combination of keys would mean i could possibly press the wrong combo and ruin my otherwise good render so far and lose context there to adjust my settings.
Maybe a magnifying glass symbol for the VRayRT VFB?

Edit: I mean I could live with it, but I think a magnifying glass symbol would be even better

Well, the other option is to put in the right-click menu "Zoom into region"?

Actually that would be good, too, I think! Fits the concept of the right click menu control of VRayRT

Yeah I second that, could be really useful, and the combination of key would be a great way to handle that.

That raise the question, let's say your in 16/9 ration and you crop to 1:1 ratio, will the VFB resize to scale to 1:1 ratio?

Both of those leads me to this question :
Another feature I'd love then is to be able to change the output (the ress) dynamically.
I'd like to be able to go from 800/600 to 3200/2400 in ress without the need of restarting the render.

This would make it easy to have a high ress RT, crop to a selection (less pixels/faster) in full screen and once done, pop back the VFB to a high ress preview.

I guess it's the same wish as art48 described with the ability to change ress of RT dynamically.

Technically it's possible to change the resolution at runtime (we do this in V-Ray for Modo, for example), but only when using the V-Ray VFB. We will get to it a bit later along with the in-process rendering.

Cool! Thanks Vlado!
