Geometry Shader Presets

List of available Geometry Shader presets. Geometry shaders are evaluated before rendering starts. This allows the shader to introduce procedural geometry into the scene. For example, a geometry shader might be used to create feathers on a bird or leaves on a tree.

For more information, see the user guide

Note	See Shader Presets for a list of different shader preset types. Also see Alphabetical Listing of All Shader Presets for a complete list of available shaders.

ConnectGeoShader Example

function ConnectGeoShader( in_preset )
{
        NewScene( null, false );
        var obj = Application.ActiveSceneRoot.AddPrimitive("GeoShader");
        Application.Selection.SetAsText(obj);
        CreateShaderFromPreset(in_preset, "GeoShader.GeoShader");
        var oShader = SIConnectShaderToCnxPoint("GeoShader.GeoShader.Geo_Cube.out", 
                "GeoShader.GeoShader.shader", false);
        if (!oShader) { return null; }
        return (oShader.Type == "XSICollection") ? oShader(0) : oShader;
}
