Render Mode

You can now define the render mode as a document property, or as a default document property, of the viewport.

You set this definition in the Viewport page of the Document Properties or Default Document Properties dialog box.

You must first create an environment variable, DS_3DVC_OVERRIDE_RENDER_MODE, and set its value to 1.

Previously, you could only set the render mode from the Render tab in the ribbon.
