When you present your design you cannot be sure that others are thinking of the same thing that you are. One of the ways around this is to create images of your design, so they can see it from several views. These can be rendered views so your client can…
Animationworks Light Object – The AW Light Object gives you control over then the lights start, stop, rate of dimming, and intensity.
Animationworks Sliding Object – As with the Rotating Object, the sliding object uses a 3D only symbol.
Animationworks Rotating Object – This object does not need a path, so you can place it anywhere.
Animationworks Moving Object and Path – This works in a similar way to the camera object. You create the moving object path, then you attach a symbol to the path.
AW Camera – The AW Camera is designed to work with the camera path object. You have to place the camera path in the file first before you place the camera.
AW Camera Path – This tool is used to create a 3D path for an AW Camera. When you create the 3D path, you can get around the problems with the standard Vectorworks animation, where it can be hard to create a smooth turn.
Simple Animation (Move Along Path) – Move along a path allows you to set up a movie that walks (or flys) through your design. It works by using a series of views. Each view is a keypoint in your movie.
Simple Animation (Orbit) – The easiest animation to make is called and Orbit movie. This movie flys around the model. It is effective for showing the outside of a building or an object. You would not use this animation to walk through a building.
