The CPU/GPU ( ) allows you to change the render engine for the live preview. When using the live preview swatch, there are other ways to reduce resource usage – choose the resolution of the rendered swatch from 100% ( 1/1) (which is the best quality, but is a slower render), 50%( 1/2), 25%( 1/4) and 12.5% ( 1/8) (which trades off image quality for refresh speed). The swatch will render the current settings of the asset, but will not take into consideration any changes done to it later. When you stop the live preview, you have the option to Preview the asset once ( ). The Stop live preview button comes in handy in such situations. As the Preview Swatch is an actual render, it might require some additional computing power. You can enable or disable the live preview of the swatch by pressing the corresponding button ( / ). It has several controls that can be customized for your workflow. This is a quick preview of materials, textures and lights.

Ctrl + ( 1/2/3/4/5/6) - Switches to the corresponding category or the settings view.Using Dome light setting, the lights come from HDRI map as direct light, and all kinds of effects like shadows, reflection, etc... will be apparent. This can be illustrated in test render sample (see image 2.0/ Setting 2.1.B and Setting 2.2.B). The shadow in Dome light+ HDRI setting appears to be smoother than Vray sun setting. Follow the parameters set-up I made for this test render experiment (See image 2.1 Dome light Setting). To change the parameters for Dome light follow the procedures: under ‘Vray Asset Editor’> go to ‘Lights’> click the Vray Dome light> under Light dome, you can see two main parameters (Main and Options). In order to set-up the Dome light: click the Dome light icon and place it in your SketchUp scene. Thus, optimizing the Dome light settings is important in order to produce a suitable environment in relation to HDRI map. Using Vray for SketchUp, when loading a Dome light+ HDRI in default setting, the render result will be darker in nature (See image 2.0/ Setting 2.1.A).
