"mean curvature"
Shader	Colour "mean curvature"( "min curvature" LtFloat -0.0015 "max curvature" LtFloat 3.0 )
Synopsis	False colour shader which shows the `mean curvature' of a surface.
Location	lishpro
Description	The mean curvature of the surface is represented by a false colour `rainbow'. This is done by converting the curvature into an HLS colour value. In order to provide different colours for the minimal and maximal values the range of curvature changes is mapped onto a range hue of only [0, 300], rather than the full [0, 360]. The following table illustrates the colour changes: hue value colour name 0 Red 60 Yellow 120 Green 180 Cyan 240 Blue 300 Magenta The parameter "min curvature" specifies the degree of curvature to be mapped onto hue 0, "max curvature" specifies the degree to be mapped onto hue 300. The other colours are assigned using a linear interpolation. Previous page alphabetically (matte) Next page alphabetically (metal) Index
