Aloha Karl,
When I do create the View as you suggest the zoom and extents of the image aren't saved. The angle yes, the zoom and extents no. Do you know why that is happening? Do you know how I can save a view so the zoom and extents of the image are saved in the view?

I haven't touched this area in years, using Artlantis instead,
What is the learning curve on Artlantis. I am working on a project today for a simple presentation tomorrow where I want to show two or three simple hidden line 3D interior views and maybe 8 simple line drawing style interior elevations for a small 700sf house. I have the house and features modeled.

The help manual is very skimpy, but there are a variety of videos to watch to see how things are done. The most poorly documented feature is the animation timeline functionality which will take some experimentation to understand I think.
Is Artlantis plug and play?
One other feature that I'm considering Artlantis for is that in a week I'll want to show the clients these same simple views with colors and textures representing the wall colors, tile layouts, appliances, fixtures and cabinets with all of the colors and textures represented in my drawings. Normally, I would just hand color (with pencil, pen and paper) the CAD drawings that I created in ArchiCAD. Do you think Artlantis is easy enough to learn quickly so I can do these colored views using Artlantis with just a few days of learning?
...
What can you tell me about the learning curve for Artlantis?
johncassel wrote:Oops. Finally read this part. Artlantis is all about photorendering - whether just stills (Render version), or stills, VR and animation (Studio version). For hand colored looks, many people use Piranesi ... but for people who are talented with pencils and brush (not me!), they can do the work on top of a line drawing themselves faster than painting in Piranesi, I think.
I am not looking for photo rendering images. More just images that replicate my hand colored drawings or water color and colored pencil drawings. It's what I'm used to. I feel like my hand drawings get good response from my clients. I also think it would be easier and quicker to do with a software package like Artlantis.
What can you tell me about the learning curve for Artlantis?
Thanks,
John
