Chapter 33. Rendering Styles
In this section you will learn how to choose and apply rendering styles.
Rendering Tab
Like the Materials, Lights and Effects tabs, the Rendering tab is divided into two panes for archives and
palette. This tab is where you select in which style and how you wish the scene to be rendered. Each
archive has a number of different render styles to choose from.
Note:
A complete reference manual for all types of rendering styles is included with the NavisWorks
API, (see \API\COM\documentation\shaders.chm). The NavisWorks API is included with
NavisWorks and can accessed via the NavisWorks installer menu.
Rendering Styles
Rendering styles affect the way that the scene is rendered when a full photorealistic render is done (by
clicking on the Render button). None of these effects are available as an interactive preview.
To set up a rendering style, simply drag your chosen style onto the palette on the right-hand side of the
tab.
To edit your chosen rendering style, simply double-click the style in the palette. The Render Editor dialog
will appear. Each editor will be different for each type of rendering style. The High Quality editor is shown
