Absolutely!
I'm currently using v1.0.0.8.
At first, my conclusion was that when rendering, the render output will crop out any unused space automatically. As you can see, during rendering, the frame size has been cropped from 544x416 to 253x366. I want to be able to prevent this from happening.
Upon further testing (and me attempting to force the program to render at the expected 544x416 canvas size) I've found that even if the canvas is flooded with particle effects, the render result will still be cropped, no matter what. I have yet to figure out how to render at exactly the canvas size I specify. I guess I'm trying to understand why the program does this, and how to force it to render at a specific canvas size without any cropping at all.
Thank you so much for reading my post, I hope that I explained my issue well enough!
