Rendering The Entire Drawing

As with any other rendering method in VectorWorks, RayMaker can be used to render the entire drawing.

The QD3D interactive renderer does not block out light. This means that light will pass right through an object. If a file rendered with the interactive renderer appears too bright, try rendering it again with RayMaker and it will look as you desired.

To Render the Entire Drawing

1. Select LightWorks RayMaker from the Rendering menu.

Rendering Selected Area

You can render any selected area using the Render Bitmap tool. This tool creates a rendered bitmap image of the area and places it on top of the area. You can then manipulate this image similarly to imported images.

This tool is a great way to preview the rendering of your drawing. It can be done at a resolution less that 72 dpi, giving you a blurry but fast representation of an area of your drawing.
