Non Square Textures

Hey Guys, 

I'm aware of the Non-Square Transform node but I'm not a huge fan of having to plug that into a Make It Tile, its a very uncontrollable and imprecise workflow in my opinion. 

Can we expect that the non-square workflow will be improved upon in the future, ie non-square generators etc? 

I ask because this affects future proofing pipelines. 

Thanks!

Yes please. In all Allegorithmic products pretty pls.

+1. On the SP side, it's been mentioned a few times already in the SP thread but layers should inherit the project's ratio, so you don't have to manually change each and every layer + parented fill. And that should also include making smart materials ratio-independent. Maybe if that's still a long way off someone can come up with a script to mass-change all of document's layer's ratios...

We are working toward a better support of non-square workflow. In both application, but for each it requires different fixes and features so it's hard to answer precisely our current status.

+1 . We  have not a single square environment texture.   It makes  both their programs  rather interesting toys than a tools for work.
  I ask for the feature for many years already and don't believe they will ever do . Guess it would require to rethink the soft from very beginning, not just a few extra cool nodes.
