Setting the image on the video screen

Select an image to display on the television, video screen, or LED screen. The Vectorworks Spotlight product includes a number of sample images, or you can create your own textures. Textures must use an image color shader with constant reflectivity to display on the video screen (see Tworzenie tekstur).

If the Vectorworks file is intended for Exporting in Vision format , associate a video source with the screen, for video display during visualizations.

1. Select a television, video screen object, blended screen, or LED screen object. From the Object Info palette, click Edit Screen Image or Edit Array Image.
