Use items on the 3D toolbar to make any of these changes:

• To change the rendering mode, choose an option from the Model Render Mode pop-up menu

.

• To view an orthographic projection, click the Use Orthographic Projection button

. An orthographic

projection effectively removes a dimension, preserving the size ratio between objects but giving the 3D model a
less realistic appearance. Click the button again to use perspective projection.

• To turn lighting on or off or to change lighting, choose an option from the Enable Extra Lighting pop-up menu

.

• To change the background color, click the arrow next to the Background color swatch and choose a color.

Note: Model rendering modes, lighting schemes, and background color options are also available by right-clicking the
3D model, and then clicking Viewing Options. Model rendering modes also appear under the Options menu on the
Model Tree.

Examples of model rendering modes

The model rendering modes include combinations of factors that affect the appearance of the 3D object. The
illustration below shows a simple object rendered in each of the available modes.
