renderable lines?

[salf]

Ok, i give up, my memory is a sad thing, i already found the solution to the following problem, but i forgot how........ :ngeupset:

 

So im gonna ask in here, maybe you know how to do it, and it will be a good information to share.

 

I want to make an autocad imported line renderable.

 

Thats it, i know is possible cuz i did it, but i forgot how.

 

In VIZ, when you draw a line, you can make it to be RENDERABLE, you just set the number of faces and the size, and thats it, a line becomes a solid when seeing the final render.

 

I want to do that same thing but to a line i imported from Autocad.

still works fine. i just tested it via dxf. you'll probably have to whack up the renderable thickness.

yeah, i know it works, the thing is that i forgot how....hehehe

 

But nevermind, i already got it, heres how to do it, if anyone needs it:

 

-select the layer with the lines

-convert to EDITABLE SPLINE

-in the MODIFY menu, click on RENDERABLE, apply the thickness and the number of faces, and thats it!
