Render the design

Cloud rendering lets you configure your rendering settings then send it to process in the cloud. Local rendering lets you configure your rendering settings and perform the rendering on your machine.

  1. Set up the environment, camera settings, and camera position.
  2. Select Render > Render.
  3. Select from one of the presets or configure custom settings.
  4. Select Cloud Renderer.
  5. Select between two render quality settings, Standard or Final. Each one produces rendering results of similar quality as the same setting does in Local Renderer.
  6. Cloud rendering requires that you have tokens in your account. Tokens area informs you how many tokens you need for specified render operation, and how many tokens you still have available.
  7. Select Render.
  8. A thumbnail is displayed in the Rendering Gallery. Once a progress bar displays below the thumbnail, you can click the thumbnail to display the progress of the rendering.
