Model Preview House Background to large - cant see everything
« on: November 19, 2018, 03:10:06 PM »
I increased the size of my "house" background image by selecting "Fill" box in the preview set up.  Now the fills the house preview when I'm trying to sequence but my models no longer line up.  I can't see the whole image on the layout tab so I can not line everything up properly.  I have a bunch of models that are now off the screen.  There appears to be no zoom out/zoom in on this image and there are no navigation handles.  Any thoughts?  I want to "fill" the house preview for recording and to better see the whole house during sequencing.  Any help would be great!!

Sorry but you need to position the background and then all the models.  You can't select the fill option later and expect the models to move with it.  If the models are off screen then you need to change the background width and height numbers to be larger again at least long enough to pull the models back into place OR you need to use the position parameters and type in values to bring the models back into view.  There are new upgrades that allow zooming of the layout that will hopefully become the mainline code in January.

Thank You Gilrock.  I put the width and height back so I could see everything and re-positioned all the models.  I then checked the house preview and presto ... for whatever reason, the house preview screen is now filled fully and all the models line up.  Not sure why it did that, but I will take it!!!
Thanks
