Viewing Your Renders

Viewing your renders can be done through either the Monitor tab, the Hydra Viewer tab, or the Catalog tab. The Monitor tab is a viewer for current and previous renders. The Hydra Viewer features a Monitor Layer which can be toggled to view your renders over the top of the geometry in the viewer. The Catalog tab acts as an archive for renders and imported images. Within the Catalog tab you can manage images by placing them into different slots for later comparison or reference.

When a slot is active (its slot number is displayed beneath the Front image in the Monitor tab), new renders are placed at its top. If the cuSrrent slot’s top image is not locked, it is replaced by any new renders. If the top image is locked, a new render is placed above it in the slot.
