Exporting 3D Views to Graphic Files

To take a picture of the current 3D view:

1. Open the 3D View.
   
   
2. Make the 3D View display the picture you want to shot.
   
   To do this, choose the camera pointing in the necessary direction in the Camera list (Inspector window, the Cameras Properties tab). Or, use the walk controls and camera orientation tools to position the current camera.
   


3. Choose the File > Export 3D View menu item, or click on the camera icon in the 3D toolbar.


4. Choose the image format and size.
   
   You can choose one of the following graphic file formats: BMP, TIFF, JPEG, PNG. Graphic formats with compression let you choose better quality or better compression.


5. Type a file name and click Save.

After an image is saved, the program offers to show you a preview of it.

To print the 3D view, open the exported picture in the Preview application and print it (File > Print).
