Improve the Batch Render

[JezEmin]

I used the Batch Render for the first time and found it brilliant.

However, it is lacking in VERY basic ways.

Is it not possible to refine it so that for example;

1) when you have a LOT of cameras (I had 60 in mine) and you want to DESELECT / SELECT them all, you can do so at a click of a checkbox at the top of that checkbox column (rather than having to check every single camera individually) ?

2)  You can modify the output path for ALL the cameras in one go.  Again, I had to do every single camera manually, one by one......

Come on Autodesk, that's TWO VERY SIMPLE easy ideas your developers could implement - this won't break the bank.....

Also;

3)  When you add another camera to the list (in my case I had 59 cameras and I needed to add a couple more), if you've organised your cameras efficiently (name convention-wise), the Batch Renderer just adds new cameras to the very bottom of the list - that might not be where they should logically be (name-wise). 

How about a REFRESH button on the Batch Render dialog box so cameras can be sorted into their correct order ?

Again, another very small tweak that would make our lives so much easier 🙂  Thank you 🙂

4)  A "Select All" button - to select all cameras so you can either choose to have them all 'checked' or 'unchecked'.

5)  The ability to shift + click to select multiple cameras so that you may either choose the tick box to select all those highlighted cameras or to deselect all those highlighted cameras.

To anyone else reading this, I'd say, don't wait for Autodesk - instead, go get yourself the Scene Manager by Pulze.  You'll be glad you did, it's pennies to subscribe to and does a lot more than I think any enhancements Autodesk get around to doing will do.  PS - I wasn't renumerated by Pulze in any way to write this.
