Get Surface-finish Image Path and File Name Example (C#)

This example shows how to set and get the path and file name of the image used for an appearance's surface finish.

//----------------------------------------------------------------
// Preconditions:
// 1. Verify that:
//    * specified model document exists.
//    * specified materials and surface-finish image files exist.
//    * PhotoView 360 add-in is loaded.
// 2. Open the Immediate window.
//
// Postconditions:
// 1. Opens the specified model document.
// 2. Applies the specified appearance and surface finish to the model.
// 3. Gets the file name of the first appearance and surface finish
//    applied to the model.
// 4. If prompted to use perspective views in rendering, click
//    Continue without Camera or Perspective.
// 5. Renders the model.
// 6. Examine the Final Render and Immediate windows.
//
// NOTES: 
// * Rendering can take several minutes to complete.
// * Because the model is used elsewhere, do not save changes.
