steveblake 01-08-2003, 01:45 PM Is there a way of rendering the Distance Tool in Maya?
(so it turns up as is, in the rendered image)
Thanks

Not that I know of. I did it once but since the only thing that I could get to render it was the playblast, I had to use that and comp it in afterwards. Worked okay but was a bit of a hassle. Best results came from making the viewport background black, switching off ornaments like grid and axes, and rendering the playblast at double size before scaling down (to soften edges). Then used that as an alpha mask. It wasn't great quality but better than nothing.
Maybe send this one to AW as a suggestion for next version? It would be handy.
Wabo.

Well, I like your answer - shows a very practical approach! I'll either do that or a insert text objects everywhere...
Thanks for your help tho
