SoBufferedShapeuseNormalsGenerator Property

Indicates if the node should use the internal normal vector generator if no normals are defined.

Namespace: OIV.Inventor.Nodes
Assembly: OIV.Inventor (in OIV.Inventor.dll) Version: 10.12.3.0 (10.12.3.0)
Syntax
public SoSFBool useNormalsGenerator { get; }

Property Value

Type: SoSFBool
Remarks

Default is true.

This mode is only supported for shapes with float coordinates and 3 components per vertex. It is not supported for the points and the lines.

Disabling the normal generator can be useful if the normals are computed in a shader or if the shaders don't need any normal at all.

Normal generation is affected by the creaseAngle field of OIV.Inventor.Nodes.SoShapeHints.
