The Texture parameter allows you to control the transparency using a 2D image, a map. Some options for materials in Vectorworks will still affect the materials appearance in the Enscape viewport (such as the Scale option) but this article will concentrate only on the Enscape Material Editor and how to use it. Once that has been done, you can open the Enscape Material Editor to work on the material there, where the name of the material assigned to the surface in Vectorworks will become available in the Enscape Material Editor under that same material name.

Therefore, before a material becomes available for further adjustment or editing in the Enscape Material Editor it must be firstly applied to the surface in Vectorworks, via the Vectorworks’ Resource Manager and / or the Object Info’s Render tab. Enscape provides a native Material Editor which is available for use in Vectorworks.Īs a Vectorworks user, you should already be familiar with the Vectorworks’ Object Info’s Render tab, as well as the Resource Manager, as these are the the areas in Vectorworks where a material can be assigned and also where you can initiate the use of keywords for Enscape’s Special Materials, such as Water, Grass, and the Clearcoat materials.
