`class` GeometryDataCasterSettings

GeometryDataCasterSettings is the interface used to manage settings for GeometryDataCaster

Properties

Property	Description
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: NoFill = Do not fill remaining pixels Interpolate = linearly interpolate the closest samples NearestNeighbor = use the closest available pixel value without interpolation. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings)
GeometryDataFieldIndex	The GeometryDataFieldIndex setting, which specifies what field index to cast in the GeometryDataCaster, for fields where it is applicable (Coords, TexCoords, Normals, Tangents, Bitangents and Colors, TriangleId and MaterialIds). The setting is ignored for other field types.
GeometryDataFieldType	The GeometryDataFieldType setting, which specifies what field type to cast in the GeometryDataCaster. The VertexId field, user field and custom field types are not supported. They are however supported in the ComputeCaster.
MappingInf	The inferior/minimum value of field values to map onto the image data range (0->1). The minimum value will be represented by 0 in the image. Note that the mapping is only used for real value fields, not id-based fields, which cannot be scaled accurately.
MappingInfA	Property the inferior/minimum value of field values to map onto the image data range (0->1). The minimum value will be represented by 0 in the image. Note that the mapping is only used for real value fields, not id-based fields, which cannot be scaled accurately.
MappingInfB	The inferior/minimum value of field values to map onto the image data range (0->1). The minimum value will be represented by 0 in the image. Note that the mapping is only used for real value fields, not id-based fields, which cannot be scaled accurately.

MappingInfR	The inferior/minimum value of field values to map onto the image data range (0->1). The minimum value will be represented by 0 in the image. Note that the mapping is only used for real value fields, not id-based fields, which cannot be scaled accurately.
MappingLayerIndex	The MappingLayerIndex setting, which specifies the layer of the mapping image to use for mapping the geometry data. This is useful eg if you have decals which are on layer 0, and the real geometry on layer 1
MappingSup	The Superior/maximum value of field values to map onto the image data range (0->1). The maximum value will be represented by 1 in the image. Note that the mapping is only used for real value fields, not id-based fields, which cannot be scaled accurately.
