OGLLight Class Reference

---

Detailed Description

The OGLLight object represents the OGL light properties of a Light object.

Note:

The behavior of this object changed in Softimage 2013. Previously, OGLLight was being re-evaluated for each data request. As of Softimage 2013, a snapshot of the OGLLight parameters is taken when calling Light.GetOGLLight(). This means that Light.GetOGLLight() needs to be called again when parameters affecting the OGLLight are modified.

OGLLight objects are read-only.

Example:

        using namespace XSI;
        Application app;
        Model root = app.GetActiveSceneRoot();

        Light myLight;
        root.AddLight( L"Spot", false, L"", myLight);

        OGLLight myOGLLight(myLight.GetOGLLight());

        app.LogMessage( L"The light is of type : " + myOGLLight.GetType() );
