Introduced

v9.0 (2011)

Description

Sets the short version of the parameter name (the ShaderParamDef.DisplayName). This is the name that appears in the Scene Explorer (with the View > Use Script Names option turned OFF). It is also the same value that the SIObject.Name property returns on the instance (ShaderParameter).

Note: If you don't set this option, the name you pass to the ShaderParamDefContainer.AddParamDef or ShaderParamDefContainer.AddArrayParamDef method when adding the ShaderParamDef will be used instead.
