Rendering

Rendering is the way in which your drawing is visually presented. Wireframe is the default/standard rendering mode used for basic drawing, open-GL is used for viewing a rendered design quickly and Final Quality Renderworks is used for presentations. However, VectorWorks is an extremely flexible program and rendering can be manipulated for maximum output.

Bellow is an outline of the different render types/modes. It is recommended that you read through all of these as they will shed some light as to what each rendering mode can achieve and which rendering mode will give your visuals the best results.
