Entering and Displaying the Rendering Mode

Enter the Rendering mode.

\render

You can continue to create using the ARC+ creation commands and edit your model in this mode, and you can switch the display between wireframe and full render without leaving the mode.

Switching between Rendered and Wireframe Displays

Toggle between wireframe and a fully rendered display.

\rendonof

Use this command to switch between wireframe and rendered displays as you work. If you toggle to wireframe display, you remain in render mode and the transfer is much faster than exiting and reentering the render mode.

$image\ebx_1693072387.gif$ NOTE The control of the working plane and cursor position in this mode is slightly different. While moving the cursor over surfaces of the model, the system recognizes the direction of the plane and its coordinate value. Thus you do not have to switch working planes or set a new value for the plane.

To exit the mode choose the modeling mode from the mode status field in the status bar (Returning to the modeling mode (\geom)).
