If your drawing contains 3D faces, meshes, surfaces, or solids, you can control how the 3D objects appear when outputting a layout. A viewport can be set to use a visual style, render preset, one of the other values defined by the ShadePlotStype enum. Shaded and rendered viewports are previewed, plotted, and plotted to file with full shading and rendering. Use the SetShadePlot method and ShadePlot property of the Viewport object to query and set the option for plotting a shaded viewport.
When outputting a layout, you can override the ShadePlot property of all the viewports on a Layout object by using the layout's ShadePlot property and control the shaded quality using the ShadePlotResLevel property.
This example creates two new viewports (rectangular and nonrectangular, and assigns a visual style to one and a render preset to another. A help function is used to create a render preset that can then be assigned to the viewport.
