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;
