Help on Auto-Canvas Size

ZBrush Artworks
#1

I have tried and cannot find a way to set the canvas size to what I want e.g. 1024x768 every time I start up ZB.

Read the manual as well.

Can anyone help? Thanks

Hi DaveG unpress Pro bottom in the Document Panel and change the values you want but as far i know,the program has a default value 640x 480 that not could be changed.

Thanks for your attention

ps: I made an exercise changing the size document and press: ctrl+shift and “i” to save this configuration and did not work.

Try using Muvlo’s Muvlo’s StartPalette. You will need to place it in the Zscript folder and name it DefaultZscript.txt. Backup the existing Defaultzscript.txt if you want to keep it. Create a document at the size you want and save it. Load the script and press the ‘Edit Autodoc’ button, select the document you just saved and from now on Zbrush will start up with that document.

There are ways to accomplish this through ZScripts.

You could have a default ZScript that has several buttons so that you can resize the canvas to particular presets with a single click. Southern has created such a default script, which is located in the Default ZScripts section of the ZScripts QuickLinks.

You could also have the code to resize the canvas to a single specific size and set it to run automatically when ZBrush launches.

Check this out:

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>

[If,1,
[ISet,Document:Width,900]
[IPress,Document:Resize]
[FileNameSetNext,“ZLauncherRevA.zsc”]
[IPress,ZScript:load]
]
//This file automatically loads the ZLauncherRevA.zsc ZScript whenever ZBrush is launched.
//In order for this file to be active, it must to be renamed “DefaultZScript.txt”

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Using this as your DefaultZScript will automatically resize the canvas to a width of 900 when launched (which is perfect for a display resolution of 1280x1024), and will then run the ZLauncher ZScript (available from the QuickLinks for 1.55b).
