Thank you!!

Yes, but not from the heliodon (parametric clouds).

You must attach a 2D image of the desired background in your parallel views.

If you do not have a suitable photo of clouds that you want to use, it is easy to generate one from the Artlantis heliodon. Just create a perspective view looking at the horizon and adjust the heliodon cloud parameters to your liking. Render that image, and then use the saved file as the 2D image for your parallel views. 😉

Cheers,
Karl

Karl,

This is brilliant!! I was wondering why I wasn't able to show clouds in parallel view, but your solution is wonderful!

Anyway, elevations are a bit strange... Seems windows transparency get the final result confusing... I will upload a screenshot later.

Thanks!!

Glad that helped, Diana. 😉

If you post your window transparency issue, please start a new thread for that subject.

Cheers,
