Good day Uli
I understand a bit better now the situation you have with the file. Maybe posting in the Landmark section you could get better attention from someone who has the same setup.(if you have not done this).
The texture seems to be black cuase you have not RenderWorks. Pity VW is setup this way.
Sorry I could not be of more assistance.
Keep Well

I'm still unclear on this one.
Are these spiders a threat to user profiles or not?
Why are they allowed to view the profiles?

Good day Uli
I just went back to your first post, and noted that you said it is a georeferenced file. Not to sure if this behaves in the same manner as a normal texture or not.
You also said you loose the functions when saving it in PS.
What format do you save it in? If you save as a .GIF file it will keep the background clear/transparent.
I do not know of another way to do it in VW.
Hope this helps you

Good day Uli
It might be 'cuase of RenderWorks you not have the option.
When you right click on the texture in the Resource Browser and Edit it, do you see a window as attached? (this is after selecting 'Mask Transparency')

Good day Uli
Which version of VW do you have?
Add this and your OS in your signature for all future posts.
I VW12.5, You would edit image>Select Image Color as color.
Select Mask Transparency as Transparency>Reuse Image(selecting the same image you are using>Transparent color>Pic what you need to make transparent.
Hope this helps as newer/other versions might be different.

Domer.
What do you want to create? A light bulb? a lamp shader? the effect of sun through a frosted glass pane in a door/window. Depending of the end result required you could setup textures in many ways....

Thanks Ray
Looks great, but need to pay, so will need to ask the boss for that.
Bohdan, I will try this and see if it works out for what we need. Thanks

Good day All.
Thank you starling75. I,m only able to use the sketchup5 file. But now it seems I do not know what settings to use to get a good looking beanbag. The settings they ask when importing does not make a difference in the render, but would like to know what the correct settings must be and then what do I do about the sharp edges?
Render is a FastRender with Shadows @300dpi.

Will give a go
Thanks Vincent

Good day All
I'm needing to draw up some beanbags(see attatched), but not sure where to start to get the shape I need.
Any advice is welcome
Regards

Good day Fergy
Also take into consideration what you are rendering, as in what is in the drawing itself.
Does it have a plain two colour background or an HDRI.
What does the drawinging consist of? Extrudes, Symbols, Polygons and what textures?. For example a simple drawing with a lot of trussing(squared to minumize size), I battle to render with an HDRI on FastRenderWithShadows. But a full stage with a 1000PAX seated inside a venue with multiple lights and LitFog background will take the same on CustomRender.
Depends what you want to Render and not just how you do it.
Keep Well

Is it only in that setting? (A1)

Good day Fergy
Please add your PC specs in your signature an d there has been plenty of threads on this topic here.
Not to sure how the rendering engine deals with the information thou.
Keep Well

Save pdf as a jpeg and convert jepg back to pdf reduces file size aswell.

Thanks Bill
I know I work in a different version, but this showd me a new way to add textures, using the Organization palette.

If you do a search on here you should find something as I remember it being discussed not to long ago.

By looking at the shadows, sees what lighting effect it will have if you rotate the room 180deg in relation to the sun source. See what light will come streaming through the window behind the bed.
Also what is the transparency of the glass?
I would use Image reflectivity and you need to have some sort of reflectivity for it to reflect, might just be why it is so dark in there.

You can also move the page boundary away from your drawing area. Click on the little hand in the tool pallete and hold it there until it shows you your two options. Select the icon that looks like a page. Then simply grab the printing area and move it out of your way. I like this because I can easily move it back over to check my drawing against print boundary.
Never knew this was possible...
Why would you want or need to move the page boundry? As what is the purpose of this tool?

Sorry Kevin, was looking at the other render from Jeff...
Thanks for the dwg. Can now go and see how far off I was with mine.
-
Good day Kevin.
I'm still battling with this the way you are doing it, but getting there, kind of. Main reasons would be I have 12.5 and work in milimeters not inches.
What texture did you use on this?

Thanks guys

Hi Bill
I too have had bad news with mirrored objects. I have truss screens drawn in 3d and when mirroring after an image was aplied it sometimes rendered incorrectly, with streaks going through it at 45deg or sometimes only part of the image appears.
I take it as a bug on my system, filing it as a bug seened pointless to me as I read on here that NNA will not bother anyway to fix it, unless one of the users on here had a script for it. Note: I don't think it happened everytime I mirrored, but I got so into not doing it I never had the problem.
Hope you come right
Keep Well
Is Layer Linking Dead?
in General Discussion
Posted
I use Layer Linking in each drawing I do, to set plan, side and front views of the project with dimensions and notes on each.
If that has gone in VW2010 there would be no reason for me to upgrade at all, might as well just stay on 12.5....
