Specify rendering settings
12 On the View Control Bar, click (Show Rendering Dialog).
13 In the Rendering dialog, for Scheme, select Interior: Sun only.
14 For Setting, select Edit.
15 In the Render Quality Settings dialog, click Copy To Custom.
The preset schemes are read-only. You have to copy a preset scheme to your custom settings in
order to make changes. In this case, in order to turn on daylight portals, you must create a
custom setting.
NOTE The custom setting is only applied to this view. This process must be repeated if you want to
use custom settings in other views.
16 Scroll to the bottom of the dialog; for Daylight Portal Options, select Curtain Walls, and click
OK.
For sunlit interiors, the daylight portals can be turned on. By default they are turned off, but
the space will receive standard daylighting. The daylight portals help to further refine this
daylight into a more realistic rendered effect. For more information on daylight portals, see the
Revit Structure Online Help.
IMPORTANT Enabling daylight portals can drastically increase rendering times.
17 In the Rendering dialog, for Sun, select Spring Equinox - Santa Monica, 3pm, select Region, and
click Render.
