Hi there, I'm trying to do a Ray Trace of this room that has a Room Divider in it. The one section I am in is lit up, but the other is not. I assume it is because the camera is not in that 'room'. Is there a way to trick the camera into keeping the lights on in both rooms? I haven't added any lights; I'm just using the Default Lighting. So it's not connected to only having 8 lights on. I've looked all over for an answer to this question, but haven't found anything. I've attached the view in Ray Trace. Regards, Carolyn

Thank you for the speedy reply Gary. This is great. My only problem is that the only pictures I have of the furniture are images taken from the websites. And they are usually frontal only views. Is there anything I can do with that? ~Carolyn

Hi, I am working for an interior designer and new to this world of 3D design. My boss wants me to make a 3D model of a room and put the furniture she wants into the room. For example a particular bed. Is there any way to quickly take a picture of a bed and make it a 3D model? Is there a software that can do this? I've been using Google Sketchup to make the objects and importing them into Chief to arrange the space. But it took me 10 hours to make a coffee table. I've tried using the Match Photo tool in Sketchup, but with no success. Any tips/advice? Thanks in advance! Carolyn
