Public Member Functions

 SoLightModel ()
 Creates a light model node with default settings.
virtual void doAction (SoAction *action)
 This method performs the "typical" operation of a node for any action.
virtual void GLRender (SoGLRenderAction *action)
 These virtual functions implement all of the actions for nodes, Most of the default implementations do nothing.
virtual void callback (SoCallbackAction *action)

Static Public Member Functions

static void initClass ()
 Initializes base node class.

Detailed Description

This node defines the lighting model to be used when rendering subsequent shapes. The lighting model is specified in the model field. When the default model (Phong lighting) is used, light sources are required in a scene for objects to be easily visible.

File Format/Default
LightModel {
  model PHONG
}
Action Behavior
SoGLRenderAction, SoCallbackAction
Sets the current lighting model in the state.
