Viewport Rendering looks horrible

[Mickey]

What gives?

I have a front section of truss with lighting fixtures, a small stage, and a person standing on it. I did a fast renderworks rendering and it looks great. So I made a view port of it, and did a right iso view and made a viewport of that on the same layer. However my viewport rendering is totaly pixelated. It looks like an 80's video game, awful.

What gives?

The viewport page doesn't allow me to select any other rendering options

What's the DPI-setting for the sheet layer?

(I get all rendering options for viewports.)

[Mickey]

Wher do I find the DPI setting?

In the Organization dialog box, select the sheet layer and click on EDIT.

Set the dpi to at least 150. Note - the higher the number, the longer it will take to redraw and render.

Great! I changed the resolution now how do I get it to re-render?

Select the Viewport and click on the Update button.

You may want to read more about Viewports in the Help system. They are covered in great detail.

Thank You for taking time out of your busy day to help me with my little problem. Although I do use viewports extensively I have never used one with a render. I usually only render one image at a time, and capture them as a jpeg, and e-mail that. Next time I will take time out of my busy day to sift through the manual rather than waste other peoples time on the techboard.
