Changing the rendering mode, lighting, projection, or
background
The model rendering mode determines the surface appearance of the 3D model. The
default rendering mode is usually solid, but you can also choose Wireframe, Points,
Illustration, or a number of other rendering modes. You can also change the lighting and
background of the 3D model, and you can use either orthographic or projection
perspective.
Changing the appearance of the 3D model A. Default appearance B. Wireframe rendering mode
C. Colored lighting D. Different background color
To change the rendering mode, lighting, projection, or background:
1. Do any of the following:
●
To change the rendering style, choose an option from the Model Render Mode pop-up
menu . For example, choose Transparent to see the inside of the 3D model.
●
To view an orthographic projection, click the Use Orthographic Projection button .
An orthographic projection effectively removes a dimension, preserving the size ratio
between objects but giving the 3D model a less realistic appearance. Click the button
again to use perspective projection.
●
To turn lighting on or off or to change lighting, choose an option from the Enable Extra
Lighting pop-up menu .
●
To change the background color, choose an option from the Background Color pop-up
menu . For example, you may want to improve the contrast between the 3D objects and
the background.
