# class VertexColorCasterSettings

VertexColorCasterSettings is the interface for basic vertex color caster settings.

# Properties

Property Description
ColorSpaceEdgeThreshold The color space edge threshold, which will define how many hard color borders there will be. Corners more similar than the threshold will be merged. This works similarly to HardEdgeAngle for normals; lower values leads more hard borders between neighboring corner colors, and higher values will give you more shared, smoother, colors. This also impacts data usage when using packed geometry since (more unique colors) == (more vertices). The distance is measured in RGBA space.
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)
Name The name of the VertexColorCasterSettings 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)
OutputColorLevel The OutputColorLevel index.
OutputColorName The OutputColorName string .
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)
UseMultisampling Enable or disable multisampling. (Inherited from MaterialCasterSettings)
