SketchUp - Scene Manager
The Scene Manager window is the single, central place from which all Maxwell-related scene parameters are managed. It may be opened or closed using the Scene Manager menu item or toolbar button. The Scene Manager contains five tab pages, each of which is responsible for dealing with a different aspect of a Maxwell scene:
Tab | Description |
|---|---|
The plugin associates a Maxwell material with each SketchUp material in the model. Selecting a material (either in SketchUp, or from the drop-down list of materials at the top of this page) will cause its associated Maxwell material to be shown in the Materials page. This page is also referred to as the Material Editor. | |
The plugin associates a Maxwell camera with each SketchUp Scene in the model. Selecting a Scene in SketchUp causes its associated camera to be shown in the Camera page. | |
This page contains parameters used to set up the rendering environment. | |
This page contains parameters which control how data is exported from the SketchUp model to the Maxwell format. It is also used to control engine-related parameters and features such as Maxwell Simulens tutorial. | |
This page contains global options (i.e. not related to any specific SketchUp model) which affect the behavior and appearance of the plugin itself. |
