Render a region of your
scene
Render
View lets you render a specific portion of your scene
at any resolution so
that you can get a feel for the changes you make as you shade, light,
and texture objects.
Unlike rendering at a
lower resolution, a process which reduces the size of the entire
image, rendering a region can help you make changes more efficiently and
quickly to the specific regions of interest at full resolution.
TipIf you turn on Auto
Render Region (Options > Auto Render
Region), the changes you make appear as you draw the
marquee anywhere in Render View. Only the marqueed
area of the surface re-renders showing the results of the adjustment.
To render a region of your scene
- Marquee select the area that you want
to render in Render View.
- If there is no representation of your scene
in Render View for you to marquee
select Render > Snapshot > and
select the camera (view) you want to capture.
- Click the Render region button
or select Render > Render Region.
