If You Want to Experiment

In this chapter, you participated in a guided tour of AutoCAD's rendering tools and saw the main features of this product. Because of space considerations, this chapter didn't go into the finer details of many features, but you now have the basic knowledge from which to build your rendering skills. Without too much effort, you can adapt much of what you've learned here to your own projects. If you need more detailed information, click the Help button found in all Render dialog boxes.

Computer rendering of 3D models is a craft that takes some time to master. Experiment with these rendering tools to see firsthand the types of results you can expect. You might want to try different types of views such as an Isometric or Elevation view, the latter of which is shown in Figure 17.36. With a bit more detail added, this rendered elevation could fit nicely into a set of renderings for a presentation.
