The Renderworks product offers several rendering modes, including custom rendering options and an artistic rendering option.
To render a drawing, select View > Rendering and the desired rendering mode. The rendering speed depends on the rendering option selected and the number and complexity of objects in the file.
To cancel a rendering before it is complete, press the Esc key.
The View bar displays the Render Modes for quick access to the rendering commands. The View bar options display the Render Mode - Short (displaying a shortened version) or the Render Mode - Long (displaying the current render mode options and the current render mode). The Current Render Mode Options button opens the settings dialog box for the current render mode, if applicable.
Save files in wireframe mode rather than in a rendered mode, so that files draw more quickly when opened. Rendered viewports are saved in a rendered state when Save viewport cache is selected in the Display tab of document preferences.
