Lesson 1: Creating a New Document

When you set up a new document, you define the size of your working space in pixels. The higher the resolution, the larger your working space. The resolution you choose depends on what type of scene you want to create.

To help you choose a resolution, Bryce provides several preset aspect ratios for the most commonly used types of documents.

To set up a new document:

1. Choose File menu > New Document.
2. The Document Setup dialog appears.
3. Click the button beside the Default preset in the list of presets on the right side of the dialog.
4. The Resolution and Aspect Ratio fields update automatically.
5. Click the OK icon at the bottom of the dialog to accept your changes and exit the dialog.

Now that you have a document, you can set up the camera view and start creating a scene.
