Script check if xsi is rendering?
Ive made a backup plugin/event that has been useful, though a bit scary as it also autosave's the current scene before copying it elsewhere (it would be good if there was a 'save scene as' command but I don't know of one?) Anyway the main issue with it is that it interrupts if a render is in progress, preview/frame/render region, so is there anyway to check if a render is in progress? Or if the region is open/preview window open?

Re: Script check if xsi is rendering?
There is some render events siOnBeginFrame, siOnBeginSequence and so on http://download.autodesk.com/global/docs/softimage2012/en_us/sdkguide/index.html?url=si_cmds/cb_Event_OnEvent.html,topicNumber=si_cmds_cb_Event_OnEvent_html,hash=ctxt_siOnBeginSequenceI didn't tried them, but maybe this is what you looking for. 2014-03-07 12:50 GMT+02:00 Simon Reeves si...@simonreeves.com: Ive made a backup plugin/event that has been useful, though a bit scary as it also autosave's the current scene before copying it elsewhere (it would be good if there was a 'save scene as' command but I don't know of one?)

Re: Script check if xsi is rendering?
there is a save scene as command but it won't let you save outside a SI project structure. You can save your scene to a different name by adding a version number, date, or whatever. It seems that we'll have a backup option without changing the current scene in the last version of SI.
