depth

Syntax

imageObject.depth

member(whichCastMember).depth

the depth of member whichCastMember

Description

Image object or bitmap cast member property; displays the color depth of the given image object

or bitmap cast member.

This property can be tested but not set.

Examples

This statement displays the color depth of the image object stored in the variable newImage. The

output appears in the Message window.

put newImage.depth

This statement displays the color depth of the cast member Shrine in the Message window:

put member("Shrine").depth

depth (3D)

Syntax

member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).sds.depth

Description

3D subdivision surfaces (sds) modifier property; specifies the maximum number of levels of

resolution that the model can display when using the

sds modifier.

If the

sds modifier’s error and tension settings are low, increasing the depth property will have

a more pronounced effect on the model’s geometry.

The

sds modifier cannot be used with the inker or toon modifiers, and you should be careful

when using the

sds modifier with the lod modifier.

Example

This statement sets the depth property of the sds modifier for the model named Baby to 3. If the

sds modifier’s error and tension settings are low, this will cause a very pronounced effect on

Baby’s geometry.

member("Scene").model("Baby").sds.depth = 3
