With this node you can render a view of an IC3D file and save it.

It has the following configuration options:
  • Input File: here you can specify the files where you want to render a view from. Select the pencil to open Expression Builder.
  • View Yaw: here you can specify the yaw of the view you want to render.

  • Output File: here you can specify he result names for the generate view file(s). Options:
    • If you leave this field blank, an output file with the original name with the correct extension will be written in the same folder as the input file.
    • If you define an absolute CLOUDFLOW URL containing a filename (cloudflow://..., see Server URL for more information), an output file with the specified file name will be written in the specified folder.
    • If you define an absolute CLOUDFLOW URL without a filename (cloudflow://..., see Server URL for more information), an output file with the original file name will be written in the specified folder.
    • If you enter a relative path containing a file name, an output file with the specified file name will be written in the specified folder based on the original input folder.
    • If you enter a relative path without a file name, an output file with the original file name will be written in the specified folder based on the original input folder.
    You can specify one value or as many files as you have specified for the Input Files.
    • If you specify one value, this value will be combined with each input file to generate an output file.
    • If you specify as many files as you have specified for the Input Files, each value will be combined with each input file to generate an output file.
  • Image Type: here you can specify the image format to use when saving the view. Options:
    • JPEG.
    • PNG. PNG files will be saved with a transparent background.
  • Render Type: here you can specify how the 3D file should be rendered. Options:
    • Standard: if you select this option, standard 3D rendering is used.
    • Ray Tracing: if you select this option, ray-tracing for rendering is used.
  • Nr Samples (only available in case of Ray Tracing: each pixel in an image that is generated by ray tracing is built from several rays. Here you can specify the number of rays that will be used for one pixel.
  • Resolution: here you can specify the resolution of the rendered view.
  • Width: here you can specify the width of the rendered view.
  • Height: here you can specify the height of the rendered view.
  • Overwrite existing file: if you select this checkbox, files that already exist will be overwritten. If you leave this checkbox unselected, existing files will not be overwritten and an error is displayed.
