Viewport display - Max Items - Affects interactive rendering too?

[MrpepeLepeu]

It seems that the value in Max Items in a forest object affects what's visible in interactive rendering (corona 5). Is this correct?
How can I improve the viewport performance while keeping all object at interactive rendering time?

Not Correct.



Maybe Your are adjusting Render Max Items instead of Display Max Items ?

[MrpepeLepeu]

When I lower the value in viewport display by a lot it doesn't render anything:
See attached please.

That is expected behavior. That is just max items. It can be 0 though.

[MrpepeLepeu]

It doesn't make sense. It's max items in the viewport tab. Not render.
At 5 it doesn't display anything on the viewport (which I don't care) but it doesn't render anything either.
That's expected?
What's the lowest value I can use that will display the least points possible and still render?

[Rokas]

You can go to value of 5 or 2 in that setting- no problem.


Maybe issue is somewhere else? We could check if You could attach or send us Your file.

Thanks!

Sent by email.
Just change the max items to from 500 to 5 to see the issue.
Thanks.

OK, i see. If there are no preview items, then Corna IPR wont render whole ForestObject. Corona Final Render will render just fine.
Our developers will check the issue. Until it is fixed please use settings that generate some preview geometry.

If You want faster viewport performance use Proxy- Plane representation.

Ok. Thanks.
