Access to Perspective Views for Renderings

When you prepare to do a final rendering without a perspective view or a camera with perspective enabled, a dialog box prompts you to add a camera or turn on perspective view.

More realistic renderings are produced with perspective view turned on or with a camera with perspective enabled. Earlier versions of the SOLIDWORKS software detected the absence of perspective settings and displayed a recommendation to switch views or enable a camera with perspective. With SOLIDWORKS 2016, this message is replaced with a task dialog box that lets you:

  • Add a Camera

    Cancels the current rendering and opens the Camera PropertyManager to let you add a camera.

    To continue rendering using the camera, click Preview Window, Integrated Preview, or Final Render.

  • Turn on Perspective View

    Turns on perspective view and lets you continue with the rendering.

  • Continue without Camera or Perspective

    Continues the current rendering without turning on perspective or adding a camera.
