Subject: Viewport Options?

Does anyone know if Vue 4 can be forced to "remember" viewport settings? I'm still happy with good ol' "wireframe" mode for all 3 except for the perspective (camera) vieports, so every time I start a new scene I have to first select "wireframe" from the menu, for those 3. Not a big deal, but, well, when you're lazy, you're lazy, ya know... :P

I stopped working with OpenGL options active, but when I did, I asked myself the same question....... Never could do it though :( So, I guess you can consider me lazy too ;)

Mike, If you set up a default file with the camera facing north to save the agrivation of having to change it everytime (not sure how many people do that) you could just save your viewport settings right along with it. Just an idea. Rich

heyas; i do, axe. :) oh, speaking of the default empty vue file... you can tell vue to run with that file loaded. you just add the file path/name to the exe name, after one space. (if i recall correctly. it might be a colon, but im pretty sure its not a semi-colon, that never works.) so one click, and vue pops open with your default scene all ready to go. (now if i could just get it to remember that i want my default render options to be 'preview' to 'main wireframe view' 'only visible layers.')

Cool! Bloodsong, can you type in exactly what you have done? How do you add this path to the .exe?

I think Rich has the way to go for that, and Bloodsong has an awesome further step! Love it! Mike, that addition can't be made to the EXE, but to the shortcut that points to the EXE. And, I think it would be just a comma. And if you keep your starting file in the Vue directory, I don't think a path would be required, just the filename, such as: Target: F:Vue4Vue4.exe,OpenThis.vue If that don't work, try it with a space instead of a comma, or with a colon.

K:SvueVue4.exe K:Svuelandscapesdefault.vue thats how you do it. well, that's how i do it, lord knows where your vue4 directory actually is ;) that's the shortcut link thingydoodle on the start menu, nothing fancy like hacking the exe file! ;)
