Shaded |
[Default Mode] Sets the rendering mode to Phong Shading. Colors are obtained from the CAD file. This mode displays the model geometry as shaded and opaque. |
|
|
Shaded with Lines |
Sets the rendering mode to Phong Shading with Lines. This mode displays the model geometry as shaded and opaque, with the addition of visible, unobscured lines. Colors are obtained from the CAD file. This is essentially a combination of the Shaded and Hidden Lines modes. This mode may display some parts better than just Shaded. |
|
|
Hidden Lines |
Sets the rendering mode to Fast Hidden Line. This mode displays only visible, unobscured lines. Faces of visible geometry are used to obscure the lines in the model. All color defined in the CAD file is turned white. This mode is a simple view that may provide a better result for hardcopy or screenshots. The Transparency option in the View properties is ignored when this mode is set. |
|
|
X-Ray |
Sets the rendering mode to X-Ray. This mode displays the model geometry as semi-transparent, but not the feature markers. This mode allows you to see through a complex scene to view or select the Feature markers. The Transparency option in the View properties is not ignored when this mode is set. |

If you notice that not all of your annotation are shown in your report, and it seems that there are missing sheets or that there should be additional sheets, this could be due to the Max Sheet Count setting in your CM4Di document. If the Max Sheet Count is set to 25, your report will show no more than 25 sheets. If this happens you can reduce the number of feature by loading fewer features or reducing the number of features by using the Keep Selected tool.
