Properties of the painter shader
The
#painter
shader gives the model a painted effect. Use these properties to work with the
painter shader:
blendConstant
Get and set The blending ratio used for the first layer when
the blend function is set to
#blend
and
blendSourceList[ index ]
is set to
#constant
. Returns a floating-point value
from
0.0
to
100.0
.
50.0
textureRepeat
List[
index ]
Get and set Allows you to get or set the texture clamping
behavior associated with a specified layer.
Texture clamping refers to how a texture
“clamps” to its shader. If the ratio of the
texture to the shader is less than 1 to 1 and
textureRepeatList
is set to
TRUE (1)
,
the texture tiles over the shader. If
textureRepeatList
is set to
FALSE
(0)
, the texture isn’t repeated but appears
only once in one part of the shader.
If the ratio of the texture to the shader is
greater than 1 to 1 and
textureRepeatList
is set to
FALSE
(0)
, the border of the texture is extended
past the unit UV coordinate range.
TRUE (1)
textureRepeat
List
Get and set Access to the list of texture clamping
behaviors, one per layer.
When set to
FALSE (0)
, the border of the
texture is extended past the unit UV
coordinate range.
Get: Returns a list of texture clamping
behaviors, one per layer.
Set: Specifies a texture clamping behavior to
be applied to all layers.
TRUE (1)
textureRepeat Get and set Access to the texture clamping behavior for
the first layer.
When set to
FALSE (0)
, the border of the
texture is extended past the unit UV
coordinate range.
TRUE (1)
