# 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.
DitherType The type of dithering to use when creating the output object.
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.
GeometryDataFieldIndex The GeometryDataFieldIndex setting, which specifies what field index to cast in the GeometryDataCaster, for fields where it is applicable (TexCoords, Tangents, Bitangents and Colors). The setting is ignored for other field types.
GeometryDataFieldType The GeometryDataFieldType setting, which specifies what field type to cast in the GeometryDataCaster.
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.
MappingInfG 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.
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.
MappingSupA Property 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.
MappingSupB 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.
MappingSupG 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.
MappingSupR 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.
MaterialChannel The name of the input material channel to cast. Existing user channels of any arbitrary name in the input materials can be cast.
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.
OutputDDSCompressionType DDS compression if output format is DDS.
OutputImageFileFormat File format for output texture.
OutputPixelFormat The output pixel format
UseMultisampling Enable or disable multisampling.

# Methods

Method Description
GetClass Get the name of the GeometryDataCasterSettings class.
GetErrorString Returns a string describing the error that was found the last time ValidateSettings was performed.
IsA Returns true if GeometryDataCasterSettings is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter.

# Static methods

Method Description
