Guest dlalonde Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 If transparent parts look grainy on your system, try the following. 1. Tools/Options/Rendering....select full openGL and antialiasing ON 2. Format/Rendering....select 'smooth shading' and if desired, 'draw part edges' 3. fit scene or move camera so that you can see your transparent parts 4. start an extrude part or start to edit a cross-section - !! 5. you can quit the current edit operation if desired. As soon as the sketch plane appears, you should see a major increase in display quality. Transparent parts should become very smoothly rendered, antialiased edges should get better, and probably camera rotate/pan/zoom should be much faster and smoother. Note that openGL transparency is order-dependent (distant objects must be ahead of near objects in the scene browser in order to be visible). Please post your results, including type of video card. I tested this with Geforce256DDR-hacked-to-quadro, Geforce4, 3dlabs GVX1. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B. Ludin Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Works fine with my GeForce2Go 32MB. Alas, the order dependent rendering makes it pretty much useless for me. Beat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
