AttributeWeights.Tangent Property

Language:

Retrieves or sets a numerical value that indicates the degree to which tangent data is used in simplification operations.

Definition

Visual Basic Public Property Tangent As Single

C# public float Tangent { get; set; }

C++ public:
property float Tangent {
float get();
void set(float value);
}

JScript public function get Tangent() : float
public function set Tangent(float);

Visual Basic	Public Property Tangent As Single
C#	public float Tangent { get; set; }
C++	public: property float Tangent { float get(); void set(float value); }
JScript	public function get Tangent() : float public function set Tangent(float);

Property Value

System.Single
A Single value that indicates the degree to which tangent data is used in simplification operations.
This property is read/write.

Remarks

If the Tangent field is 0.0, the simplification operation ignores the tangent component when it calculates the error for collapsing the edges of a mesh. However, if the Tangent field is 1.0, the simplification operation uses the tangent component. If the Tangent field is 2.0, double the amount of errors; if it is 4.0, quadruple the number of errors, and so on.
