Scene dimensions

Can anyone tell me whats going on here, the scene I'm trying to render seems tilted and it's not filling the screen, see transparent area, not come across it before. Thanks in advance.

    That is an interesting one. It almost looks like something is blocking the render, but I don't know why it would render it as transparent. A couple of things might help.

    1. A screenshot looking from the camera's point of view with texture-shaded view so we can see what geometry might be there.
    2. A screenshot showing your Render Settings. In particular I'm curious about how the transparency/alpha channel is setup. If you're using the default settings, it should be fine, but it's possible that something got flipped there and needs reset.
      • To troubleshoot this, you could also use the little menu in the upper right corner of the Render Setting tab to reset to defaults. You'll probably need to re-configure the image size and stuff after you do that though.
    3. I would check the log file (Help > Troubleshooting > View Log File) to see if Studio/Iray is reporting any errors that would cause something to not render properly.
    4. As a troubleshooting step, try moving the camera slightly and re-render to see if there's just something odd saved in the scene about the camera location which a little "wiggle" could reset and fix.
    5. If that doesn't help, I'd delete the current camera and create a new one to render from just in case some parameter on the camera object itself is messing you up.
  • Perhaps th eimage size parameters between the render settings and the camera are different? Not at my Daz machine to test the theory, but there is the check box in settings to use local dimensions? You could have for example 3x2 in your camera an 9x16 in your render settings.

  • I'm not sure what happened but when I started a new document, seemed ok though the ground plane looked a bit off but not sure if that is the default anyway, ok now, Thanks

    FWIW, camera settings will override the render settings.
