3D Wireframe Map
To access this screen:
-
The 3D panel is part of the Mapping task bar. It only appears if a wireframe map is selected.
The 3D screen lets you format the display of the current wireframe map.
Activity steps:
-
Load a wireframe map.
-
Display the Mapping Task Bar.
-
Click the 3D tab.
-
Configure the display of the wireframe map:
-
If Show Overlay is checked, the wireframe map displays according to other settings on this screen.
-
If Show Overlay is unchecked, the wireframe map's overlay is hidden. This doesn't unload data but instead hides the map from view. This may be useful to get a clearer view of other map features.
-
-
Configure the texturing of the wireframe map:
-
If Texture is checked, and a texture exists for the loaded map, the texture displays.
-
If Texture is unchecked, the wireframe map displays in a solid colour.
-
-
Choose if the wireframe updates according to changes to the virtual light sources in your 3D scene.
-
If Unlit is checked, the Wireframe is 'flat' rendered and displayed with the base underlying colour or texture shown without any positional lighting effect.
-
If Unlit is unchecked, light is rendered according to the position and settings of all available light sources.
-
-
To unload the wireframe map and remove it from the current database, click Delete.
Warning: You will need to confirm this, as it can't be undone, other than by recreating the wireframe map.
