Piranesi EPix Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to export the current view as a Piranesi EPix file.
Browse Opens the Save As dialog box, and enables you to specify the location, and the name of the file you
want to render to.
Size
Type Use the drop-down list to specify how to set the size of the exported image.
Choose from:
■ Explicit. Gives you full control of the width and height (the dimensions are in pixels).
■ Use Aspect Ratio. Enables you to specify the height. The width is automatically calculated from the aspect
ratio of your current view.
■ Use View. Uses the width and height of your current view.
Width Enables you to enter the width in pixels, when available.
Height Enables you to enter the height in pixels, when available.
Anti-Aliasing This option applies to OpenGL renderer only. Anti-aliasing is used to smooth the edges of the
exported images. Select the appropriate value from the drop-down list. The higher the number, the smoother
the image, but the longer they take to export. 4x is adequate for most situations.

QTVR Object Movie Settings Dialog Box
Use this dialog box to specify the number of pan frames and number of tilt frames that are used to export the
QuickTime VR object movie.
Pan Settings
Pan Min and Pan Max Define how far the model can be revolved (as though on a turntable).
Pan Initial 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).
Pan Frame No. The number of frames to be used to revolve the model from the Pan Min position to the Pan
Max position.
Tilt Settings
Tilt Min and Tilt Max Define how far the model can be tilted (backwards and forwards from its current position).
Tilt Initial 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).
Tilt Frame No. The number of frames to be used to tilt the model from the Tilt Min position to Tilt Max position.
