i don't get this- WHY do i see much SHARPER rendered

images in the gallery when i set mine to 10 for antialising?

you can't set it any higher than that..

i turned all the reflections off except for a 2 on the refraction

so i can see some glass..

and all the illuminations are on 8 and 5..

 

makes no sense to me..

 

i hope nobody is going to tell me to render for seven hours to a 600 DPI

printer setting and then somehow shrink it down to a JPEG to post..

 

what's going on here please..

Unfortunately the cool images that you see probably took over ten hours to render.  Setting Revit to render to printer rather than screen on 150dpi will make a difference.  300dpi will take more than twice as long to render and 600dpi more than twice again.  I set mine up to render overnight, but a high quality rendering with lights will take days rather than hours on a standard machine.  Some of the images in the gallery took over a week to render.  We will have to wait for more computing power to get good renders fast.

thanks tim- yes i know if you render a high DPI and

shrink it down- the image will be very sharp..

 

but how do they get a JPEG to fit the screen

for posting to the gallary with a huge image?

are they printing to another program that

shrinks the image and then saves it as a

new JPEG or what?

Thats exactly what I do, normally after rendering overnight.  I export it as a TIFF and then change the size and change it to a JPG.  You can just use Windows Paint to do this.

tim- i always use paint for my pictures- but i've never known

any way to save as a different size..

i would like to know how you do this..

 

i have many tiff images exported from revit

and i opened one in paint like i always do

and changed the size to a very small image

and then saved it as a jpeg and then went

to that saved jpeg- but it opens as the

original size.. i can't believe this..

even if you change the size of an image

in paint and then close paint- it does not

ask you if you want to save any changes..

 

please tell me what you are talking about?

I don't have any problem doing this.  When you save it, do you give it another name? - perhaps that is the problem.  I have just opened up a 3.65M TIFF, reduce the size (both sides by 50%, under Image, Resize) and saved it as a JPG (36Kb) and as a TIFF (893Kb).
