Frequently asked questions
Where is Rendered Solid in the menu?
Add Object → 3D → Rendered Solid
What can I adjust?
Start with the key controls above, then fine-tune everything else in the right sidebar inside Studio.
Is this non-destructive?
Objects live on layers as elements. You can edit parameters anytime; delete the element to remove it.
Does Rendered Solid work with multi-pen plotting?
Yes. Use Pen Palette on a layer to split linework by color, or set per-path ink on modifiers like Offset.
