Accessing Auto Reflection in IRender nXt and ArielVision
Auto Reflection is a check box on the Styles Tab which makes some materials reflective based on their name.
If this is checked, materials with names that match these patterns will render with the preset reflection values.
Auto Reflection is easily customized. Change patterns, add patterns, and update the preset values for each matching pattern.
On the Setup Options tab, CLICK Setup Auto-Reflection.
Add new patterns at the bottom of the list, and update any of the listed patterns.
Patterns and Order of Patterns
The patterns are matched to the material names, case is ignored, and the first pattern that matches is used.
So if you have a material named "Tile - Wood on Wall", "Wood" is the first match, because it is listed before Tile and Wall.
Use the arrow buttons to move patterns up and down the list.
