John Bigboote Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I am currently running A:M V18.0M (avx) on Windows 10, and everything seems GREAT except I notice my render time indicator is being 'cut-off' by the program... happens in A:M render and A:M NetRender as well. I have 2 montitors... one is a 4K and the other is a 1920 X1080 Dell... it happens on both. I have tried adjusting the little sliders that would make the column bigger, but with no luck. It's a very-very small issue- and if I hover over a frame or the current render frame it will show the time elapsed or total frame render time..., anyone else have this? If more people see it this way- I will submit as a bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted September 15, 2015 Hash Fellow Share Posted September 15, 2015 Wait until v18n comes out and try that before you do a report. I have the beta of that and it doesn't appear to have the problem here. In NetRender it is possible to drag the dividing line between "Description" and "Time" to change the space allotted to each column but A:M doesn't have that. Does Reset all Settings change anything?

John Bigboote Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Where do I find 'reset' in A:M and in NR? In NR the tab is adjustable... but it just slides the error over... you still only see '0:0'... and the other tab to the right will not expand the column any further... on my end at least.

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted September 16, 2015 Hash Fellow Share Posted September 16, 2015 In A:M... Help>Reset Settings There doesn't seem to be such a menu item in NR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bigboote Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 Thanks, Rob... We should all compare notes on our setups... Here's all the stuff I do after I reset my settings or do a clean install: -Introduction screen- unclick 'Show this on startup' -Tip of the Day... unclick 'show tips on StartUp'. This is very useful for newbies, but I am usually in a rush. -Libraries- close (sorry- never got the hang of it.) -Community- close -Property Info- close -Alt-1 opens Project Workspace -Alt-2 opens Timeline -Alt-3 opens Properties -Alt-4 opens Pose Sliders (all of these found under 'View' tab at top. -View- Workbook, puts A:M into 'tabbed' workbook mode. (essential!) -Tools/Customise- Commands tab, Draw Buttons... drag 'turn Decals' ON/Off' up to toolbar. -Tools/Customise- Commands tab, Draw Buttons... drag 'toggle normals' ON/Off' up to toolbar. -Tools/Customise- Commands tab, Draw Buttons... drag 'toggle particle/fur' ON/Off' up to toolbar. (it is great to have a button for these features at hand.) -Tools/Options- Global Tab- check 'particles hair always OFF' (a feature I requested that Steffan implemented! I don't know if it is working the way I envisioned it... when it is clicked, I want hair OFF when I open an existing hair project- but it is not doing that right now. It just makes for longer lag times while you wait for your hair pre-roll to compute, then you just turn hair off.) Hair can always be toggled by shift-8. -Tools/Options- Global Tab- check 'Show advanced properties' and 'Show property triangle'(what this does? idk.). -Render to File button... click advanced, apply.

John Bigboote Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 BTW- Reset settings did not fix the render time display problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted September 17, 2015 Hash Fellow Share Posted September 17, 2015 Since it's still there after Reset Settings go ahead a submit a bug report. You could always cancel it if the problem disappears in v18n. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bigboote Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 I am just wondering if it is 'only me'... or if other people using 18.0M are seeing this as well... if I could get anyone else to say 'yup' or 'not happening here...'

Fuchur Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 i am on win 7 with fullhd display and on win 8.1 with Hd+ and it does not happen as far as I can tell. But that does not mean that it is not possible that it is a bug. Just to have ask it: did you change you dpi fontsize level of windows? that could easily create such a problem. I do not use workbook mode. it had been buggy in the older days so i just never work with many windows open especially since it is that easy to reaccess them. and today it is just no longer a part of my workflow. from time to time i use two tiled windows or such things but that's it.

John Bigboote Posted September 17, 2015 Author Share Posted September 17, 2015 I have not changed my fontsize in Windows... I am on Win10 and have a dual monitor setup... either of those could be at issue. I have grown very fond of Workbook mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuchur Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 I have a dual (actually even tripple now if you include the cintiq) monitor setup. So it might be a windows 10 thing. See you *Fuchur* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted September 17, 2015 Hash Fellow Share Posted September 17, 2015 I can't think of any display problems I'm having anywhere, work book or not, except occasionally I will do a Turn and only a portion of the display moves. Usually Spacebar will fix that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I am on A:M 18M and Windows 10 and do not experience the problem you describe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
