The various effects of the decal’s Finish settings can be seen in this next image. A different perspective on office showing decal of the adjacent building This Enscape generated image has the Depth of Field value adjusted to slightly blur out the background. This decal uses a photograph of an actual adjacent existing building to provide more realism. The next image shows the same decals plus a very large one outside the building. Note, that any transparency in a PNG file is not used in Revit or Enscape in the context of decals. In the cutout image, black completely removes areas from the first image and other colors add various levels of transparency to the original image.

Thus, the images must stay with the Revit model or they will appear missing when the model is opened.

Decals are supported in Enscape's Real-Time Rendering environment, including panorama and Virtual Reality. This is a great way to present framed art and other embellishments in renderings. Placing an independent image in Revit is done using the decal command.
