A condensation management apparatus comprises a microstructured film arranged to condense water vapor on an underside of a substantially horizontal surface. The film comprises channels disposed at least on a first major surface and configured to support capillary movement of condensate. The channels have a channel axis substantially parallel with a longitudinal axis of the film. A capillary siphon structure of the film comprises a fold in the film, a condensate collection region proximate the fold, and a siphon region between the fold and a condensate release location of the film. At least a portion of a second major surface is attached to the underside of the substantially horizontal surface such that longitudinal openings of the channels of the condensate collection region are oriented towards a direction of gravity and the condensate release location is positioned lower along the direction of gravity than the condensate collection region.

At a first viewing angle, the array of lenses presents a first image for viewing without presenting the second image for viewing, and at a second viewing angle different from the first viewing angle, the array of lenses presents for viewing the second image without presenting the first image for viewing. At least one first or second segment can include one or more microstructures or one or more nanostructures configured to produce one or more colors for the first or second image.

A process for producing a resinous panel which is for use as at least some of the front panel of an article, the process including (A) a step in which a resin sheet having a thickness of 0.5-10 mm is fixed to a working table and (B) a step in which the resin sheet is punched out by forcing a Thomson blade into the resin sheet approximately perpendicularly thereto from the side where the surface of the resin sheet is to be the outer surface of the article, thereby obtaining the front panel, wherein (C) the Thomson blade is a double-edged blade having an edge angle of 30-60 degrees. The resin sheet has a tensile modulus of preferably 1,500 MPa or greater. Preferably, the resin sheet includes a transparent resin sheet layer and a colored resin sheet layer in this order from the surface that is to be the outer surface of the article. The colored resin sheet is one which does not break when a DuPont impact test was conducted in accordance with ASTM-D2794 in a 0° C. environment under the conditions of a height of 50 cm, an impactor diameter of 1 inch, an impactor weight of 1 Kg, and a pedestal diameter of ½ inch.
