Is There a Way To Have Art Show In Elevations?

[Ringos]

In interior design elevation view, it would be nice to have a picture on the wall display. The photo frames in the library show in the elevation but not the picture in the frame. They display nice in ray trace. Anyone have good technique for this?

That is a camera view, right?

 

I was looking for an interior elevation view and how to get the art to show.

Elevation view ...

Have the courage to let me know ( privately, if necessary ) how my post is not relevant; how I might improve my answer ?

I do wall art as a 3D solid and "paint" it (apply material) that is the image I want.  These "pictures" won't display in Chief's 2D wall elevations, which default as vector views.  Bob is showing you a standard view of a wall.  Just change your view type from vector to standard.

Hi Bob, it wasn't me, but obviously the reason somebody didn't like your response is because you demonstrated that you knew how to achieve the end result but you didn't describe HOW. The original question was clearly about how to accomplish it and required a description, which Gene provided.

 

@RingosWhen using the 'Standard' rendering technique in elevation / section view, you can also turn on the 'Hand Drawn Lines on Top' and experiment with those settings to tweak the display to your liking.

SOLUTION

 

CA Support helped me with this.

 

To show art in elevation views. Use standard view instead of vector view. Standard view might be a little dark but you can brighten up the scene using technique options.

 

1. Open the elevation.

2. Go to 3D> Rendering techniques> Standard view.

3. To brighten the scene go to technique options 3D> Rendering techniques> technique options.

4. Use a backdrop image to get great skys, use ambient lighting to get light in the scene, even put some hand drawn lines on it.
