Hello I'm trying to do several renderings with different settings. A minimal example looks like:

> \>    for (i = 0; i < 2; i++) { \>         renderdata()#RDATA_PATH = new(Filename, stradd("foobar", tostring(i)) ); \>         CallCommand(12099); \>     } \>

The problem with this code is, that CallCommand() is non-blocking, so each new CallCommand() will interrupt the current rendering (or more precisely, prompt the user).

Is there a way to wait for the rendering to finish before calling CallCommand() again?

So I guess it will be possible with C++, right?

Have you managed to use RenderDocument to produce (and actually save to disk) images with alpha transparency? I was not really successful on this:(

Take a MultipassBitmap instead of a BaseBitmap. This should work fine.

Oh, nice, thanks for the hint. I somehow missed that.
