Saving a composite relief

Use the Save Composite Relief button to save the composite relief to file. The composite relief is the sum of the visible relief layers in the model, which can be seen in the 3D view.

To save the composite relief of the Front Relief layers:

  1. Ensure the 3D view contains the composite relief you want to save.
  2. In the Project Tree, select the Front Relief item. The Relief Layers panel is displayed below the splitter bar.
  3. On the panel, click . The Save Composite Relief dialog is displayed.
  4. Navigate to the location where you want to save the relief.
  5. Enter a name for your relief in the File Name box.
  6. Select the format in which you want to save the file from the Save as type list.
    Saving the composite relief as a 16-Bit Greyscale TIFF Image file retains the full Z resolution of the model. This means that you can edit the height of the relief in graphics packages including Adobe Photoshop without any loss of resolution. Your edited 16-Bit Greyscale TIFF Image files can then be imported back into Carveco.
  7. Click Save to close the dialog and save the composite relief.
