Archicad 21 3d window resolution

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello!
I need to make an image from 3d window in a perfect quality. I know that Archicad 20 has special panel for that, and Archicad 21 doesn't have this. How I can change the resolution of the 3d window in Archicad 21?

I change window size, but quality is still poor, could you tell me, how I can save an image, for example, in a 300dpi and 500x400mm?
500 x 400mm at 300dpi = 5906 x 4724 pixel image.
(as a mm to px conversation website told me)

In AC21, the maximum 3D window size is 4048 x 4048 px (due to performance reasons).
Alternatively, render out an image via the PhotoRendering Settings palette, switch to the size tab, and set any pixel size. Click render using the Basic Renderer or CineRender engine.

On the 3D window tab, right click and choose window size option. It will automatically un-maximise the window. Then you can save from the 3D window at that size.
