Renderable::SetRenderType

Defined in: C4Renderable.h

Sets the primitive render type.

Prototype

void SetRenderType(RenderType type);

Parameters

type The primitive type of the renderable object. See below for possible values.

Description

The SetRenderType function sets the primitive render type of an object. The type parameter may be one of the following constants, where n represents the number of vertices.

`kRenderPointList`	A set of n points to be amplified in a geometry shader.
`kRenderLineList`	A set of n / 2 unconnected line segments.
`kRenderLineStrip`	A set of n − 1 connected line segments.
`kRenderLineListIndex16`	A set of line segments with 16-bit indexed vertices.
`kRenderTriangleList`	A set of n / 3 unconnected triangles.
`kRenderTriangleStrip`	A set of n − 2 triangles connected as a strip.
`kRenderTriangleListIndex16`	A set of triangles with 16-bit indexed vertices.
`kRenderTriangleListIndex32`	A set of triangles with 32-bit indexed vertices.
`kRenderQuadList`	A set of n / 4 unconnected quads.
