closing the render view ?

[Aleks Berg-Jones]

I have a method where I need to save a small image and then convert it to a texture within the same loop. I found that the easiest way to do this is to save it directly from the maya render view. This should save the most recent image that I just rendered but only works for the first try. On the second try it will save the first image again unless I close the render view window(how to do this in script?) or render the image twice which is possible for this limited application but makes the intended sequence more difficult.

refresh(f=1) has no affect and moving something to make the dg dirty ? then doing refresh(f=1) has no effect

sel = cmds.ls(sl=1)

for i in sel:
    getInput = raw_input();

    myMap = z_TEX_dir + getInput + '.png '
    self.render_choice()
    cmds.renderWindowEditor('renderView', e=1, writeImage = myMap)

    ....

Why dont you use postrender script? In render global settings there is section at the bottom where you give it a command a prerender or post render.
