DESCRIPTION

This node defines the lighting model to be used when rendering subsequent shapes. The lighting model is specified in the model field. When the default model (Phong lighting) is used, light sources are required in a scene for objects to be easily visible.

FIELDS

SoSFEnum model

Lighting model to use

METHODS

SoLightModel()

Creates a light model node with default settings.

static SoType getClassTypeId()

Returns type identifier for this class.

ACTION BEHAVIOR

SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction

Sets the current lighting model in the state.

FILE FORMAT/DEFAULTS
