Raytracing tutorial/fr

Introduction
Ces travaux dirigés(didacticiel) doivent présenter le lecteur au workflow de base de l'Atelier Raytracing, aussi bien que la plupart des outils qui sont disponibles pour créer une image rendue.



Requirements

 * FreeCAD version 0.16 or above
 * POV-Ray and/or LuxRender is installed on the system
 * In the case of POV-Ray, it's not enough to have just the binary executable in place, but it also requires the installation of supporting files, and in Ubuntu these are provided by the Recommends-flagged package povray-includes. Potential issues have also been seen with Linux installations requiring local configuration files to be manually created in a user's home folder, as discussed here.
 * In the case of POV-Ray, installation of psicofil's macro is recommended
 * The reader has the basic knowledge to use the Part and PartDesign Workbenches

Modeling
In this example a Cube is used as the study object, but models created in the Part or PartDesign Workbenches can be used instead.


 * 1) Create a new document
 * 2) Activate the Part Workbench
 * 3) Create a Cube. You are free to change its properties in any way.

Now we have a model with which to work.

Preparing for the render

 * 1) Switch to the Raytracing Workbench
 * 2) Change your View to Perspective. Go to View menu and select Perspective.
 * 3) Set the location for the renderer. Go to the Edit menu and select Preferences. Click on Raytracing and set the location to the executable.
 * 4) Set the size of the rendered image. Go to the Edit menu and select Preferences. Click on Raytracing and set the desired image size.

POV-Ray

 * 1) Select  [[Image:Raytracing_New.png|32px]] New PovRay project. From the dropdown menu pick RadiosityNormal

LuxRender

 * 1) Select [[Image:Raytracing_Lux.png|32px]] New LuxRender project. From the dropdown menu pick LuxClassic

Setting the camera position

 * 1) Position the 3D View to the desired location and distance from the model. In this case we will use the Axonometric View.
 * 2) Select the Project Folder from the Tree View
 * 3) Select [[Image:Raytracing_ResetCamera.png|32px]] Reset camera

Importing the model

 * 1) Select the model to render.
 * 2) Select [[Image:Raytracing_InsertPart.png|32px]] Insert part

Running the Renderer

 * 1) Select  [[Image:Raytracing_Render.png|32px]] Render.
 * 2) Set the path to which the image will be stored.
 * 3) Wait for the rendering to finish. This may take a while.

Viewing the results
FreeCAD will immediately open the image after the render is finished.

We are now finished with the basic workflow for the Raytracing Module.
