Material Parameters

Reference

Panel:

Properties ‣ Material Properties ‣ HEIO Material ‣ Parameters

A list of parameters that either get used the shader for rendering, or that alter certain properties of the shader.

When the material uses a custom shader, the parameters can be freely added, edited and removed. Otherwise they are set up based on the selected shader.

Parameter Properties

Name

Name of the parameter. Cannot be empty.

Cannot be edited when material is not using a custom shader.

Type

Type of the parameter

  • Float: A 4-component floating point vector

  • Color: Float but as a color

  • Boolean: A checkbox

Note

Color parameters are actually just Float parameters with a color editor. Editing the color will change the internal float value and vice versa.

Value

Value of the parameter. Depends on the type.
