Object Model: Envelope.SetDeformerColor

Envelope.SetDeformerColor

Description

This method changes the color assigned to a deformer. Each vertex on a deformed object will be painted with the color of the deformer that influences it the most. The method expects normalized RBG values, in the range 0 to 1.

C# Syntax

Envelope.SetDeformerColor( X3DObject, Color in_pColor );

Scripting Syntax

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
Deformer	X3DObject	deformer object
Color	Color	Color object to assign
