Matharchi Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 How can I generate shadows in hidden line? I've already installed heliodons for quick rendering. Tks Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee jblock Posted November 17, 2023 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted November 17, 2023 @MatharchiI usually recommend using Shaded render with colors and textures turned off and Draw Edges on. That will give you a similar look to Hidden Line, but with Shadows. You can also use an Artistic or Custom Renderworks style in the background with Hidden Line applied to the foreground. 3 Quote Link to comment
rDesign Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 If you want to use an Artistic Lines and Shadow Render style in the Background, see this thread for info on recommended settings to get rid of unwanted lines created by the default Artistic Lines & Shadow settings: Quote Link to comment
grant_PD Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 See if you can do a foreground render in shaded mode, turn off textures and colors and draw edges. Then do a background render with hidden line turned on. Quote Link to comment
