BG problem? Not capturing the whole image
Posted by Denisa Costin on January 12, 2017 at 4:34 pmHey guys! I have been having this problem recently regarding the Bg, basically it doesn’t show the full view, so when i render it out i am left with the grey lines from c4d, My settings are 1920 per 1080, film aspect HDTV 16:9, dont know what else is wrong? I never used to have this problem before

January 12, 2017 at 6:33 pmThe render in the View window will have grey bars outside of your Render Settings dimensions. The render in the Picture Viewer will show the final results. Is this what you are referring to?

January 12, 2017 at 6:48 pmActually what I meant to say was the image in the View window will have the grey bars showing in the area that is outside the Render Settings. If your background image is 1920×1080, but your View window is wider for example, a render there will have grey bars on your background because it isn’t large enough to fill it. If your Render Settings are 1920×1080, the background should fill it in your final render.
Hope this makes sense. Or perhaps I haven’t understood your problem.

January 13, 2017 at 4:53 pmBackground images are scaled to your output settings when rendered. I suspect that your background image is not filling the background when you render because you have modified its Length U/V and/or Offset U/V settings in the Texture Tag. For a 1920×1080 final render, if your background image is 1920×1080 then Offset U/V should be 0% and Length U/V should be 100% (unless you are trying to move it or stretch/shrink it for visual effect). It appears that you just need to adjust the Offset U and V in order to move it up and right.
