Setting Output Format Preferences

 
 
 

Location:

The Output Format preferences provide access to a variety of camera, image-format and other parameters that are normally scattered throughout several other property editors.

You can modify all of these parameters from the Output Format property editor, and then apply the changes to all applicable parts of the scene. For example, you can change the camera picture standard and then update all of the cameras in the scene as well as the relevant render options. This allows you to quickly make global changes to the most common settings.

To set output format preferences

  1. If you'd like, choose a Preset. Each preset loads predefined values for both the Camera and Frame Rate settings.

  2. You can manually make adjustments after loading a preset, if desired. See Output Format Preferences.

  3. Once you've set the parameters as desired, click the Apply Now button in the Update Scene Elements section. The following dialog box opens:

    Choose the settings that you want to update:

    • Updating camera settings affects all cameras in the scene.

    • Updating render options affects all render passes in the scene.

    • Updating Fx Tree settings affects all trees in the scene.

  4. Click OK to close the dialog box and update the selected settings.
