Hi, on one of my machines the vray frame buffer does not open.

It’s not off-screen (!!!) - it simply does not show up - even in a blank new file. Normally there is an additional Max-Tab opening in the task-bar , but not on this machine.

The Max Frame Buffer is there and opens.

Windows 10, Max 2019, Vray Next

Thanks for your help

Hi Dmerc

If you open up the MAXscript listener you can control certain aspects of the VFB. To reset the position you can enter:

vfbControl #pos “reset”

That should reset the position to the default… worked for me.

You may need to enter this also to ensure it is activated:

vfbControl #show true

Hope that helps

Cheers
