Render views are similar to vector views, but have a more realistic appearance because they display surfaces using textures and can calculate light sources and generate shadows.

Very little preparation is needed to create a render view. Chief Architect has default values for most textures and even creates default light sources so that the render view looks realistic when first generated. For better renderings, add or adjust light sources and edit the materials being rendered.

From a render view, you can create final and raytrace views that appear even more realistic.

The render camera and overview tools function just like the vector camera and overview tools. Many objects can be placed and edited in render views, just as they can in vector views.

Render views can be saved with the plan for use in layout and easy access to commonly used interior and exterior views.
