Sky illumination

Hi Ladies & Gents

I have a long standing issue that has always bugged me, when im creating renders using the sky illumination i find that the setting always resets to off when i switch to my view so i always have to switch it on before rendering. Anyone know how to make the sky illumination permanent?

Thanks

Save the sky settings in the view.

the problem is that i have lots of cameras and i want the setting to be global (which i thought it was), even setting the sun and sky setting on each camera is a waste of time as it resets after i leave the view.

Yeah, I see what you mean. The "Sky Properties" status switches off when moving from one camera to another.

You could use a simple lisp routine for switching views. Something like this:

(defun c:CAM1(/)
(command ".view" "r" "camera1")
(command ".skystatus" "2")
(princ)
)
