density

Syntax

member(whichCastmember).shader(whichShader).density

member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).shader.density

member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).shaderList{[index]}.\

density

Description

3D #engraver and #newsprint shader property; adjusts the number of lines or dots used to

create the effects of these specialized shader types. Higher values result in more lines or dots.

For

#engraver shaders, this property adjusts the number of lines used to create the image. The

range is 0 to 100 and the default value is 40.

For

#newsprint shaders, this property adjusts the number of dots used to create the image. The

value can be from 0 to 100 and the default value is 45.

Example

The following statement sets the density property of the shader named EngShader to 10. The

lines used by this

#engraver shader to create its stylized image will be coarse and far apart.

member("scene").shader("EngShader").density = 10

The following statement sets the density property of the shader gbShader to 100. The dots used

by this

#newsprint shader to create its stylized image will be very fine and close together.

member("scene").shader("gbShader").density = 100
