Rendering style

- [Instructor] Most of Enscape's rendering settings can be found underneath the Settings bar, here underneath the Enscape tab. If you select on Settings, here you'll see the General Settings. And the first area that we need to be looking at will be the Rendering Style. Now what I'd like to do is just go ahead and open up my Enscape View. So to do that, I'm going to just come over to where I have my Enscape started. And what we can see is underneath the Rendering Style there's an option here for Outlines. Outlines does what it sounds like, which is it will create a nice, dark outline around any of the objects that you see in the Enscape view. If you're looking for a higher realism, go down to the zero percent for the Outlines. If you want it to look more like a drafted sketch, or something that you may have created using the old-fashioned marker or watercolor kinds of techniques, then go to your Outlines and change it to 100 percent. Additionally, there's an option here called Mode. By clicking where it has the word None, you can change that to be White and then it will eliminate all the color associated with the model object itself. You'll notice the sky is still blue and the background still has whatever colors are associated with the background. But anything that's a model is now in a mode which they're calling White Mode. By the way, if you adjust the outline, so it's down to zero percent, then it's almost completely white. But by pushing that up to 100 percent, you have nice, dark outlines around those white colors. Also, there's this Polystyrol Mode and if you select on that, it's very similar to white. It gives you a slightly different effect. And there's a Light view. By clicking on the Light view, you can see where all the high concentration of sunlight is located in the scene. In this example, we can start to see that anything that's this, I'll call it a green color, that's not getting hit directly by the sun. Those happen to be the shadows being cast on the ground. Anything that's getting hit directly by the sun looks red. Something in the middle has that yellow color to it. If we come back up here and change it back to None again, it'll then change the scene back to the way that it was before. And then finally, to get it back to a rendered look, you can just move the Outlines all the way on over to the left-hand-side and once it's at zero percent, you'll have your typical Enscape rendered look.
