SphereGeometry

reverse_normals

Bool
default: False

enable to reverse the normals in the geometry

side_type

Int enum
  0 = “force two-sided” (default)
  1 = “force single-sided”
  2 = “use mesh sidedness”

set single sidedness of the mesh, will affect the visibility of the mesh based on normal direction

label

String
default:

label used in material aov expresssions

shadow_receiver_label

String
default:

Label used to associate Geometry objects into sets. Then, using the ["shadow_exclusion_mappings"] attribute, shadows from specified geometry parts can be suppressed from casting onto specified sets.

ray_epsilon

Float
default: 0.0

When a secondary ray is fired, anything within this distance of the intersection point will be ignored. Instead, it is considered part of the current intersection's geometry. If zero, an automatically calculated epsilon will be used.

shadow_ray_epsilon

Float
default: 0.0

When a shadow ray is fired, anything within this distance of the intersection point will be ignored. If this value is less than "ray_epsilon", then it has no additional effect.

phi_max

Float
default: 360.0

The arc of the sphere surface around the z axis expressed in degrees.

radius

Float
default: 1.0

The radius of the sphere. The sphere will clip if the radius exceeds the magnitude of either the zmin or zmax values.

zmax

Float
default: 1.0

The maximum extent of sphere on the z axis expressed in object space and independent of the radius. The sphere will clip if the radius exceeds the magnitude of this parameter.

zmin

Float
default: -1.0

The minimum extent of sphere on the z axis expressed in object space and independent of the radius. The sphere will clip if the radius exceeds the magnitude of this parameter.

visible_diffuse_reflection

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in diffuse reflection

visible_diffuse_transmission

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in diffuse transmission

visible_glossy_reflection

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in glossy reflection.

visible_glossy_transmission

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in glossy transmission (refraction).

visible_in_camera

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible to camera rays

visible_mirror_reflection

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in miror reflection.

visible_mirror_transmission

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in miror transmission (refraction).

visible_shadow

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry casts shadows

visible_volume

Bool
default: True

whether the geometry is visible in indirect volume rays

contains_camera

Bool
default: False

Specifies whether the geometry contains the camera and should be used for IOR tracking. This should not be changed by the user -- they should instead attach the relevant geometry to the camera, which will then flag this geometry.

dicing_camera

SceneObject
default: None

Alternate camera that is used for adaptive tessellation. This is useful if you want adaptive tessellation to behave consistently in a sequence, regardless of what the main camera is doing

node_xform

Mat4d blurrable
default: [ [ 1, 0, 0, 0 ], [ 0, 1, 0, 0 ], [ 0, 0, 1, 0 ], [ 0, 0, 0, 1 ] ]

The 4x4 matrix describing the transformation from local space to world space.

references

Geometry Vector
default: {}

list of geometries that geometry procedural can reference during procedural generate/update stages. For example, an instancer geometry procedural can instance primitives generated by the reference geometry procedural.

shadow_exclusion_mappings

String
default:

List of mappings of the form A:B where:
A is a list of names of parts to be mapped, or asterisk to map the whole geometry
B is a list of labels corresponding to the sets corresponding to distinct values of ["shadow_receiver_label"], or asterisk to map to all such sets.

static

Bool
default: True

disable if the geometry will be updated between frames
