Microvellum Toolbox - Rendering

Design Environment
AutoCAD 2007 introduces the new design "dashboard.” This interface element consolidates all solid and surface modeling tools into a single place and enables users to see at a glance the tools and workflow available in AutoCAD. AutoCAD 2007 also takes the intuitive, grip-based editing features introduced for drafting in previous AutoCAD versions—such as Dynamic Input, ortho, and tracking—and integrates them into solid and surface modeling.

Lights, Materials and Rendering
The new interactive light tool in AutoCAD 2007 enables users to quickly and accurately place distance, point, and spot lights in a drawing. After the light has been placed, designers can use the light target grips to shine the light precisely where they need it. By placing the lights, designers can see the effect of lights on shadows in real time, with no need to render the image first.

In AutoCAD 2007, applying materials to a model is as easy as applying hatch patterns in 2D. Users drag materials from a predefined library onto any solid face or surface defined in their model. The material then scales automatically; there's no need to manually adjust scaling parameters based on the size of the model. If the material library does not have the proper materials, designers can use the new materials editor to edit the material and create a customized library.

AutoCAD 2007 incorporates the latest in rendering technology, the Mental Ray® rendering engine. This powerful technology (incorporated into other Autodesk products such as Autodesk® 3ds Max®) has been integrated into a new user interface that makes accurate and realistic renderings as easy as possible. Capabilities include a slider control that graphically displays the trade-off between time and rendering quality.
