The Pan Min and Pan Max settings define how far the model can be revolved (as though on a
turntable). The Pan Initial setting defines where you view the model from at the start (again, as
though on a turntable, 0 or 360 would be the same point at the opposite side and 180 would be
where the camera is now). The Pan Frame No. is the number of frames to be used to revolve the
model from Pan Min to Pan Max.
The Tilt Min and Tilt Max settings define how far the model can be tilted (backwards and
forwards from its current position). The Tilt Initial setting defines where you view the model from
at the start (assuming you are looking at the model straight, -90 would be from the bottom and 90
from the top). The Tilt Frame No. is the number of frames to be used to tilt the model from Tilt
Min to Tilt Max.
5. Browse to a location and enter the name of the file you want to render to.
6. See “ Controlling the Size of an Image ” for details on how to set the size of the rendered file. The
only difference between those options and the size options on this dialog is that you have a Use
Printer Page option here, which will size the image to the page setup size of the default printer.
If you choose Use View as the Size of the image file, then NavisWorks will save any existing render
from the main window, without having to render again from scratch.
7. Click OK to export the rendered output, or click Cancel to return to NavisWorks without exporting it.
Once you have set up and rendered a scene as you wish, you can additionally create animation in that
scene. For more information, see Chapter 19, Animation . The rendering that you have set up will be
applied to each frame of the animation.
