               CHAPTER 9                                                           Multimedia Features



MODE                                     DESCRIPTION

TransparentBoundingBoxOutline            Displays bounding boxes edges and faces of each node, aligned with
                                         the axes of the local coordinate space for that node, with an added level
                                         of transparency. The color of the bounding box edges is determined by
                                         the AC entry. The color of the bounding boxes faces is determined by
                                         the FC entry.

Wireframe                                Displays only edges in a single color. The color of these edges is
                                         determined by the AC entry.

ShadedWireframe                          Displays only edges, though interpolates their color between their two
                                         vertices and applies lighting. The AC entry is ignored.

HiddenWireframe                          Displays edges in a single color, though removes back-facing and
                                         obscured edges. The color of these edges is determined by the AC
                                         entry.

Vertices                                 Displays only vertices in a single color. The color of these points is
                                         determined by the AC entry.

ShadedVertices                           Displays only vertices, though uses their vertex color and applies
                                         lighting. The AC entry is ignored.

Illustration                             Displays silhouette edges with surfaces, removes obscured lines. The
                                         color of these edges is determined by the AC entry, and the color of the
                                         surfaces is determined by the FC entry.

SolidOutline                             Displays silhouette edges with lit and textured surfaces, removes
                                         obscured lines. The color of these edges is determined by the AC entry.

ShadedIllustration                       Displays silhouette edges with lit and textured surfaces and an
                                         additional emissive term to remove poorly lit areas of the artwork. The
                                         color of these edges is determined by the AC entry.

               Note: If a render mode type is encountered other than those described in Table 9.43,
               the render mode dictionary containing that entry must be ignored by its consumers.
               This allows future documents using new render modes to behave consistently with
               future documents using new 3D view constructs that are ignored by older viewers.
