Hey Andrew, thanks for the reply, and sorry for the late reply.
So I am still not fully understanding what the render view is doing. Am I
going to have to use mel.eval to call renderViewRenderSelectedObj? Or can I
preform this in python?
Or is there a better way to render out the selected objet only by the cmds.
render('persp', x=300, y=300, abortMissingTexture=True)
Thanks!
