Two Issues with Image Plans

[greech82]

I have two basic issues with image planes:

1) Every time I create a fixed image plane from View>Image Plane command in a perspective view, it looks squashed vertically in the render.

2) Every time I create a free image plane from View>Image Plane in orthographic view, then switch to a perspective view, I can never cause the image plane to appear in the perspective render.

Can anyone help with these questions?

Hi @greech82

You may need to tweak your render settings to fix the squashing issue.

If the image plane isn't appearing in all viewports, you'll need to select the image plane and press CTRL+A to open the Attribute Editor. From there you should see a check circle that says "Display in all Viewports" as long as the image plane is showing in all viewports you should see it in the render.

If this doesn't help, please post some screenshots of your issues and/or attach the scene file and image here so I can take a look at it!

RE: tweaking render settings, what specifically?

Hi @greech82

Change the size of the render itself or if you're using a frame on the shot you can change that as well.

You can also grab the image plane and change it manually.

If this doesn't help please post some screenshots here and/or attach the scene file so I can take a look at it.
