Communigate Pro AE-List@media-motion.tv Message 42461

that fix seem worse than the problem - it would be nice if there was a setting where the work area would stick, I am constantly hitting the render settings and hitting the custom and then of course your forget one and there is a lot of going back and forth - Jonathan, I feel your pain.

I just dupe the render comp a bunch of time before adding to the queue

Ok, I'll admit with a little more presence of mind I could avoid this, but this is driving me nuts.

I have many comps that 'm breaking up into discreet renders. Unless in the Render Settings I remember to make the work area a Custom Setting, the work area to render changes as I change the work area itself. Now I know this makes sense doe many situations. I get that this is a valuable idea. But it almost never matches how I work.

As I say, I know this is me, but I wish there were a switch I could throw that would make the work area stick when I set it in the render.

Perhaps there is. Anyone know of such a thing in the prefs or somewhere else?

Many thanks,

Jonathan
