Renders and tours
Still renders
Render images of your design at Full HD, 2K or 4K, square or portrait, as JPEG or PNG, with lighting and finishing effects.
A still render is an image of the 3D view at a set size. Renders run on your own device, using your browser and graphics card, so nothing is uploaded and there is no queue. They use the same real-time engine as the 3D view; photoreal path-traced renders are in development.
Steps
- Frame the shot in the 3D view with Orbit or Walk, or use Go to on a saved view in the Views panel.
- Click Render in the top bar. The window opens on Still image. If you were in the 2D view, the Studio switches to Split.
- Choose a Lighting preset and set Finishing effects.
- Choose a Resolution: Full HD (1920 × 1080), 2K (2560 × 1440), 4K (3840 × 2160), Square (2160 × 2160) or Portrait (2160 × 2700).
- Choose a Format: JPEG (smaller file) or PNG (lossless).
- Optionally click Dollhouse, Top or Front under Camera angle.
- Click Render image, then Download.
Tips and limits
- To reframe, close the window, move the camera and open Render again. Your settings stay.
- Add Arcvelle watermark is off unless you turn it on.
- If your device cannot render at the chosen size, a message asks you to try a smaller resolution.
- Save the angles you use often with Save current 3D view in the Views panel.
- To adjust a render afterwards, open it in the Image lab.
