The Material Offset and Preview panel enables you to preview the material as well as adjust the offset and rotation values. Figure 78. Material Offset and Preview panel. Applying Photometric Data In AutoCAD 2008, you can create realistic rendered images by applying real-world photometric properties to light sources. For example, you can reference the lighting catalog for a specific fixture and then use the candela, lumen, or lux values to adjust the lamp intensity. Photometric properties are accessible from the Command line when you create a new light or from the Properties window when you select an existing light. 47
