Topic: Unable to create a movie or capture still, MISSING CAMERA ICON

[chris.dellafave]

Im using lumion free version 2.5 to create a movie following tutorial #5 and my own model(s). When I enter movie mode and attempt to record a new clip there should be a camera icon on the center of the screen. In the the edit movie clip mode i have full function of the camera(left right up down) but I am unable to capture a scene. The CAMERA ICON IS MISSING. Ive tried other files and models even a blank landscape, but still no dice.

What is going on, am I using a different version?

Thanks for the help

Hi Chris,

1) Can you attach a screenshot please? (Click on "+ Additional Options" when you reply)

2) What's the desktop resolution?

Hi Morten,

I resolved the problem by altering my resolution.
Thanks for the help

Thanks for sharing the solution, Chris - this might help others users in a similar situation one day.

What is the minimum screen resolution Lumion works at then?

Have noticed for example on large screen presentation screens that don't go high enough (even for hdmi connects), that screens such as the Materials window do not include all of the Material dialogue, and things don't wrap or provide for scrollable dialogues.

1280x720 if you set the Windows taskbar to 'auto-hide'. All buttons/sliders etc should be at least partially visible (I hope ) but let me know if you spot any problems.
