The scene painting view is a snapshot of the modeling view. In this view
you can both paint and view your strokes in a rendered fashion to see
what they will really look like as you work.
You can dolly, track, and tumble in the scene painting view. You can
select objects by pressing the Ctrl key and clicking on them. If you want
to move, or otherwise manipulate 3D objects in the scene view, you must
exit the Paint Effects panel by pressing the 8 key again.
2 With the Daisy Brush selected, paint a stroke in the scene painting view.
The new stroke displays in rendered mode. If you dolly or track the scene
painting view, any rendered strokes will revert back to wireframe display
until you refresh the rendered display.
3 To automatically update the paint strokes so they display in rendered
mode, select Stroke Refresh > Rendered.
It will take a few moments for the rendering of all of the paint strokes to
be calculated and then displayed.
Each time you adjust the camera view while working in scene painting
mode with Refresh > Rendered turned on, the system will automatically
update the rendering based on the new view.
Automatically refreshing the rendering can be time-consuming depending
on the complexity of paint strokes in your scene. Alternatively, you can
set the rendering to refresh only when you manually choose to do so.
4 From the Paint Effects panel menu, select Stroke Refresh > Off.
