Show Bounding Box
The bounding box is the area of a volumetric cloud that will be rendered. A bounding box is automatically
created when a cloud is painted and corresponds to the cloud’s dimensions in 3D space.
Bounding boxes can be rescaled interactively. Simply select the Move Tool and drag the orange grabbers.
Editor Color
This is the color of a cloud’s bounding box, which is not selected in the editor.
Editor Quality
Volumetric clouds are depicted in the editor as so-called cloud density points (see “The Cloud Tool”). Since
these clouds use a lot of memory, you can lower the level of detail with which they are depicted. As soon as
you switch to the Cloud Tool, new rules apply (“Quality” in the “Display” tab).
Note:
This setting does not affect the quality of the rendered volumetric clouds.
