Note that it is possible to have multiple viewports displayed at the same time and that each can have a different DrawStyle applied. When clicking between different viewports, the settings displayed in this pane will change to correspond with the DrawStyle applied to the selected viewport. </p> <p> Note that the <a href="/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/interface/drawstyle/nvidia_iray/start" class="wikilink2" title="public:software:dazstudio:4:referenceguide:interface:drawstyle:nvidia_iray:start" rel="nofollow">nvidia_iray</a> DrawStyle uses a lot of memory, so setting multiple viewports to the NVIDIA Iray DrawStyle can significantly slow down Daz Studio and possibly lead to a crash due to a lack of available system resources. </p> </div> <h2 id="child_elements">Child Elements</h2> <div class="level2"> <p> Below is a list of interface elements that exist within the Draw Settings pane. </p> <ul> <li class="level1"><div class="li"> <a href="/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/interface/panes/draw_settings/editor_page/start" class="wikilink1" title="public:software:dazstudio:4:referenceguide:interface:panes:draw_settings:editor_page:start">Editor Page</a></div> </li> <li class="level1"><div class="li"> <a href="/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/interface/panes/draw_settings/advanced_page/start" class="wikilink1" title="public:software:dazstudio:4:referenceguide:interface:panes:draw_settings:advanced_page:start">Advanced Page</a></div> </li> <li class="level1"><div class="li"> <a href="/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/interface/panes/draw_settings/option_menu/start" class="wikilink2" title="public:software:dazstudio:4:referenceguide:interface:panes:draw_settings:option_menu:start" rel="nofollow">option_menu</a></div> </li> <li class="level1"><div class="li"> <a href="/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/interface/panes/draw_settings/information_panel/start" class="wikilink1" title="public:software:dazstudio:4:referenceguide:interface:panes:draw_settings:information_panel:start">Information Panel</a></div> </li> </ul> </div>
