I would like to create a custom backdrop to use in my full-camera and render views in Chief Architect. What are some guidelines for creating a backdrop?
ANSWER In Chief Architect, custom backdrops images can be imported into the library, allowing you to display your plans in camera views and overviews with backdrops that show your local area or even the actual building site. Location, location, location Whether you’ve already chosen a building site and you want to show your customer what the finished building will look like or you want something exotic, think creatively when trying to find a photo spot. A parking lot, a pond, a clearing in the woods or atop a plateau: each has great potential for a unique building location background. It’s good to see variety when you’re looking through the program’s library, so while you’re in the field searching, imagine yourself finding that perfect place to build. Position is critical Once you’ve found the perfect location, it’s all about camera position. Usually, the photos you take will be comprised of land, horizon, & sky. Try to position the sight boundary of the ground in the middle of the vie
