Insert "crickets" here.........😁

I sent this issue to FZ Support, and judging from the response they weren't even aware of it. I hope V9.2 (or whatever they call it) isn't as buggy and temperamental as the current offering.

I'm having the same issue. I have to do lots of revisions to the same image. It's handy to be able to set it to render the same view at say 8" x 10" @200ppi That way I can replace my existing link in Adobe Illustrator in the exact same place. They way it is now I have to make an extra step to open it in Photoshop and resample it or else it comes in huge. Maybe that's not a big deal until you are doing 10 of them in rapid fire succession. I never had this problem with any version of FZ until V9

I can steal from the best of them!😉

I think V8.6.5 was FZ's "finest hour" to date.

If I remember correctly $3,500 was for the full blown "studio" version. I had the base package and it was about $900. from what I remember. Did everything I needed and more. It's still my favorite sub-d program. But now C4D has apparently done away with actually "owning" the software. It's available now as a monthly or yearly subscription.

I just DL the update and it still has the issue that if I resize the modeling window, my toolbar mushrooms off the page. This has been a problem since the V9 beta

Exactly

I see lots of examples of people's, work but not too many actual "tutorials".

Millions of dudes would still ask it out.

you might try emailing them at: support@formz.com probably get a faster response

If you don't want the map on one face to move, while you are adjusting one on another, make sure you have the map type set to "flat"

I stand by my assertion. This still feels like a beta version. I advised my company not to upgrade to V9 for a while and let the dust settle, but they didn't listen. Now I think they wish they had as many if us are still using V8.6.5

"Thanks so much to all you guys who are effectively beta testers" ...and who effectively paid for the privilege.

I don't see FZ as ever being more than a niche company. They just don't have the developmental or marketing dollars to compete with the big boys, and I don't think they have anything special a larger company might consider buying out. My employer dictates that I use it, and I am ok with that. It's a decent software and for the most part I can do my work. However, If I had my choice I would not be using it. I'm not being harsh it's just my honest opinion. Since I started using FZ with V7 it seems to follow the same pattern that it takes a while for them to get it sorted out. With that being said everyone stay safe and happy holidays.
