Setup

-- YafaRay Setup --

YafaRay Installation Path - Path to yafaray-xml.exe file.
Use the File browse dialog button.

Use Custom Temporary Directory - Path to the Custom Directory.
Directory for storing generated XML file and temporary YafaRay output image. Default working directory is the same as the output image directory. Use this option if you want to use a different directory from the final image output directory.

Use Custom XML Export file - Use the File browse dialog button for selecting custom XML file export location.
Use a custom filename and directory for the generated XML file. This is useful when generating multiple XML files for batch rendering or for rendering a previously generated XML file.

Export XML - Creates an XML file without rendering.

Render XML - Renders the Custom XML file or the last XML file that was generated.

Delete XML file after render - Delete the generated XML file on render completion.

-- YafaRay4tS Setup --

Leave console window open after render - If checked the console window will stay open after the render completes.
By default the console window will close after the render completes. Selecting this option will leave the console open so that the user can scroll through the YafaRay render engine output messages.

Start console window minimized - If checked the console window open then minimizes.
With this option checked the console window will no longer pop-up when the render engine is spawned. This is very helpful when batching a sequence of renders. Leaving console open after render is the only way to see warnings or errors from the YafaRay renderer.

Disable All Viewers- Do not show the rendered result.

Internal Viewers - If active a floating panel view opens when the render completes.

Internal Viewer List - Generic or iOptDetector

• Generic - The Display is a trueSpace floating panel that displays the rendered image in a fixed 320x240 [4:3] pixel ratio. Any rendered image using a different pixel ratio will be distorted, but will render properly.
  Requirement: The Output- Render File format must be in the TGA file format.
  From the TGA Viewer - File menu, you can save the rendered image as PNG, JPG, BMP and GIF file formats.
• 
  iOptDetector - does not have any of the limitations of the Generic viewer. The OptDetector plugin must be Installed and Loaded from the Package Manager.

External Viewer - If enabled the TGA Viewer opens when the render completes.
> Default path: C:\trueSpace761\tS\TGA_Viewer.exe
Requirement: The Output- Render File format must be in the Truevision Targa (*tga) file format.
From the TGA Viewer - File menu, you can save the rendered image as PNG, JPG, BMP and GIF file formats.
Also supports a Custom Viewer.
Opens a user specified image viewer when the render completes. Use the File browse dialog button to enter the path where it is located.
This can also be used to open an Image Editor that is registered to open with the rendered image file format.
Example: C:\trueSpace761\tS\Image Folder\yaf_test.tga

Save Settings - Saves your preferred current settings within trueSpace and to the trueSpace directory that will reload after Resetting the Default Context.
