This has been reported a couple of times already, oldest thread I could find is 2 years old. I’ve recorded 2 of my 4K monitors to show you here: https://youtu.be/DXo\_XWaxVbI
As stated. When switching between renders of different resolution the VFB jumps to another monitor. I thought it chose the primary monitor as its preferred place, but that’s not the case. It’s very consistent and reproducible. Latest V-Ray, latest 3ds Max 2023. I have 3 x 4K monitor + 1 x HD monitor setup. All have the same scaling, so no issue there.
This unfortunately still happens and is very very annoying, sometimes the VFB is reduced to just a title bar (different location and monitor). It took me a while to figure out where he ended up even. So I have to click the VFB button again. And then I have to > ALT + SPACE > Restore
Yes, that doesn’t work and is beside this issue. With multiple monitors, and a maximized VFB on one monitor, when changing to a render with a different aspect ratio as the one loaded, the VFB will go to my other (main) monitor, but only the Title bar will be visible all the rest is gone. (See screenshot)
Clicking reset VFB doesn’t do anything when it is in this state. I need to activate the VFB again with the toolbar button. Press ALT + SPACE and click restore for it to snap back to the other monitor (not maximized). When maximizing again, changing render with different ratio, the process is back to where we left off.
Hi, has this been resolved yet? In a nightly perhaps? Or is there a command I can use to make the position of the VFB fixed? Because it’s very very very annoying. I have this issue A LOT (30-50 times per day) because I work with a lot of different aspect ratios.
I try to avoid using maximized because of that. That issue is even more annoying. What about the window switching when it’s not maximized, but when ratios are different switching between renders, makes the VFB jump to another monitor as well. If I reset the VFB it’s good for a while but it doesn’t stay that way.
Hi I am not sure what you mean with your last post.
There was an issue where the VFB would rescale when switching between renders of different resolution. This is fixed now.
The other issue is with the 4K monitors (VFB moves to another monitor with 4K monitors) which is yet to be fixed.
1 year later and I’m still chasing my VFB, every hour of the day. Has this been fixed? In a nightly perhaps? This is a basic functionality… I can’t swith between renders without having to reactive VFB, ALT + Space > Restore.
C’mon Chaos, updates/bug fixes are very slow, dare I even say nothing noteworthy in the last year. Not sure why I’m paying a subscription actually. Please fix this, this is really frustrating.
