11.1 Open KashBird

A digital elevation map has to be opened in advance. This may be the attached sample map by the installation.

Decide where you create a CG, for example on the top of a mountain at first. If you become familiar with the KashBird you will create a CD looking up to the top of a mountain from the bottom of a valley.
KashBird functions as a camera.

(1) Open from the Map

Place the mouse on the top of a mountain (if the name of the mountain is displayed it will be emphasized). Then click the right mouse button and select [KashBird] - [Open KashBird]. [KashBird Position] functions just same. After opening the KashBird a rough view from that point will be displayed.

(2) Open from Menu

Select [3D] - [KashBird] in the menu or click  button. THen the KashBird will be opened at the center of the map displayed.
Since the center of the map is not always the top of a mountain you could be seeing the underground of the mountain.

(3) Multi KashBird

Up to Five KashBirds can be opened the same time. To open multi KashBird click the right mouse button on the map and select [KashBird] - [Open KashBird]. It is convenience when you want to see the mountain from the different viewpoints. But you have to have much memory or the drawing speed is reduced, or some time it cannot be opened at all.
