Photoworks

Photoworks

Photoworks

(OP)
I'm trying to render a model that I've added surface features to, like text cut into the surface to .003 inch deep or so.  I was successful in rendering the text a year or so ago, but I can't remember how I did it.  Photoworks ignores the text and renders the surface as one solid color, which is driving me nuts.  I want it to render the way I see it on the screen, just adding the lights and such.  How do I make it render the text?

RE: Photoworks

Did you also add the PhotoWorks material (and not just the SolidWorks material) to your cut surface?
