Creating Layer Backgrounds

With RenderWorks, backgrounds can be added to create a more realistic drawing. Backgrounds, such as clouds, a color or color gradient, or an imported image or panorama, are applied on a per-layer basis. In addition, special weather effects can add to the layer the illusion of snow, fog, ground fog, or shafts of light in fog.

RenderWorks backgrounds are resources that are created and displayed in the Resource Browser and are saved with the file (default resources are automatically imported into the file at the point of use, and display in the Resource Browser); see VectorWorks Fundamentals Default Resources.
