class ComputeCasterSettings
ComputeCasterSettings is the interface for the advanced compute shader based caster settings.
Properties
| Property | Description |
|---|---|
| CastLayersFrontToBack | If set, will cast a multi-layer mapping image front-to-back, rather than the default back-to-front. |
| Dilation | The Dilation value. Where applicable, such as colors and normals, the caster will fill empty pixels surrounding filled pixels with values mixed from the filled ones. This setting sets how many pixels to fill outside the original filled pixels. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| DitherType | The type of dithering to use when creating the output object. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| FillMode | The fill mode determines what to do with the pixels that remain unfilled after both the casting and dilation has been performed. Options are: None = Do not fill remaining pixels Interpolate = linearly interpolate the closest samples NearestNeighbor = use the closest available pixel value without interpolation. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| MaterialChannel | The name of the input material channel to cast. Existing user channels of any arbitrary name in the input materials can be cast. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| MaxCastLayers | Use this to set maximum number of layers to cast. The caster will never cast more layers than what is in the mapping image. |
| Name | The name of the ComputeCasterSettings object. (Inherited from Object) |
| OpacityChannel | The name of the input opacity channel to use for combining layers in most casters and casting opacity in the opacitycaster. User channels of any arbitrary name can be used. If the caster is run through a Pipeline object, the OpacityChannel set here will also be set as the output materials OpacityChannel property. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| OpacityChannelComponent | The component in the opacity channel to use as opacity value. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| OutputColorSpace | Defines the output pixel color space to use. Please note that all internal processing is done in linear space, including super sampling mixing. Conversion to gamma space is done after mixing, right before conversion to the output pixel format. |
| OutputDDSCompressionType | DDS compression if output format is DDS. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| OutputImageFileFormat | File format for output texture. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| OutputPixelFormat | The output pixel format (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |
| ShaderCodeInputMode | Select what kind of shader source or binary data the compute caster expects as input. |
| UseMultisampling | Enable or disable multisampling. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings) |

Static methods
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| IsClassA | Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object) |
| SafeCast | SafeCast makes sure the input object is of a class that can be cast into spComputeCasterSettings, and if this is the case, returns the object cast into spComputeCasterSettings. (Inherited from Object) |
