Making product preview images

A product preview image is a cataloging visual reference of the folded state of a design. It shows the state in which the folded design appears in the preview area when you are browsing the Library.

A product preview image shows also the state in which the 3D model of a design appears when you open the design's 3D drawing.

To make a product preview image

1. Do any of the following:

• On the graphical area, right-click anywhere, and then click Make Product Preview Image on the context menu.
• On the Tools menu, point to 3D Presenter, and then click Make Product Preview Image.

The Set Preview Snapshot dialog box appears displaying a preview of the image.

2. Consider the following situations:

• If you want to have the snapshot as it is displayed in the dialog box, click OK. This completes the procedure.
• If you want to make changes as to how the 3D model is visualized in the snapshot, click Cancel, make the changes, and then make a new snapshot.
