Overview
Creating a visually compelling online catalog often requires showcasing products from multiple angles. This wiki explains how to enable and manage multiple perspective images of buildings using the IdeaRoom configurator, details the process for receiving these images, and discusses the limitations of the current system.
Steps to Enable and Use Multiple Perspectives
Step 1: Enabling Additional Perspectives
To enhance your online catalog with various views of each building design, multiple perspectives can be enabled in your IdeaRoom configurator.
How to Enable:
1. Contact IdeaRoom Support: Request the activation of additional perspectives for your configurator.
2. Confirmation: Once confirmed, this feature will be activated and available for all submissions on your configurator.
Step 2: Generating and Receiving Images
After enabling the feature, you can create and save designs as you normally would, there will be additional images in the emails coming from your configurator.
*Manual Collection: Manually copy and save each image from the email for use in your catalog.
Limitations and Considerations
While the multiple perspectives feature enhances the visual presentation of your catalog, there are several limitations to consider:
- No Bulk Download: Currently, there is no mechanism to download all generated images in bulk. Each image set is sent separately to your email.
- Manual Handling Required: You will need to manually manage and organize these images from each email, which can be time-consuming if dealing with large volumes.
Summary
Enabling multiple perspectives in the IdeaRoom configurator allows you to create a more detailed and appealing online catalog. However, the current need for manual image management from individual emails means extra steps in the catalog creation process. By staying organized and in contact with IdeaRoom support, you can effectively manage these limitations and maintain an attractive and updated online catalog.
