Hi,
I’m a newbie to 3DSM Design & I’m wondering why my viewport w/ a custom camera view doesn’t render. The view shows the model & when I start render the floating renderer doesn’t show any of the model. The render is calculating but I’m not getting an image.
Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
Thanks,
Dennis

Many possible causes.

You may have Exposure Control active and set to Exterior Daylight, or the default settings for mr Photographic Exposure Control.

Or your camera is looking at a non illuminated object.

Or, you have added a light, but turned it off.

Or…

Can you zip the scene file, and attach it to your response here. If you delete all the objects in the scene and make a Box that is visible in the Camera viewport, and it still does not render, my first suspect would be the Exposure Control setting.

Thanks, It was the exposure control.
