Ornatrix Maya: Feature request: View Ornatrix in Maya GUI without Ornatrix license

Is it possible to change the Ornatrix license acquisition timing when editing the Ornatrix operator? (Mean no license is required when viewing Maya viewports and rendering) Currently, if you open a maya scene containing Ornatrix data in a GUI environment without Ornatrix, the Ornatrix data will be lost. There is also a way to convert to Alembic for environments without an Ornatrix license, but it takes time to create a render-only scene. Best wishes, ------- Yuji Yamauchi OakCorp Support

IvanKolev	If you only need to view the scene and never save it, you can install the Ornatrix demo version. But if you save the scene with the demo version, all Ornatrix data in the scene will be reset to default values. We'll investigate again the possibility to check the license only on editing. The problem with this in Maya (compared to 3dsMax) is that GUI is defined in scripts, and we can't place the license checks there, as they can be easily removed.

oakcorp	Hello, Mr. Ivan Thank you very much. This is a request from a user who has moved from Hairfarm in 3ds Max to Maya Ornatrix. Certainly, in the demo version, you can view and render without saving the Maya scene. Thank you for your advice. Best wishes, ------- Yuji Yamauchi OakCorp Support
