Hi!

Please upload a scene-file.

The image plane is attached to the camera 1. When I rendered with camera 1, its is fine in both maya software and maya hardware 2.0. 

The problem was when I tried to render it in persp camera, maya software wouldn't render the image plane.

Hi!

The attached image plane is used as background for (and correct orientated to) attached camera, therefore it's only rendered with the camera where it's attached to.

Hi~ 

The image plane can be rendered even under the camera it is not attached to. 

Image plane was rendered in persp camera ( image plane is attached to camera 1)  in maya software but not maya hardware 2.0.　

I am just wondering why it rendered in maya software but not maya hardware 2.0.

thanks

Hi!

It an be viewed/displayer with an other camera by using the Viewport 2.0, which is the same as Maya Hardware Renderer 2.0 , but not in Software Rendering.

Hi~ 

Thank you for replying. 

Sorry, I don't quiet understand what you were saying, can you kindly explain a little more? (I am a beginner of maya, I don't know what Viewport 2.0 is. Is it the default render setting of maya? and what is the relationship between Viewport 2.0 to maya software and maya hardware 2.0? )

Thank you.

Hi!

Maya Hardware 2.0 just renders by using the Viewport, so it looks the same (same shading, same features).
