vlset_render_type

NAME

vlset_render_type - Set the rendering type for the next rendering cycle

SYNOPSIS

#include <parvox.h>

void vlset_render_type(vlvolume *vol, vlvariable *variable, int type, int time_step)

DESCRIPTION

vlset_render_type() sets the rendering type, type, to be either VL_VOL for direct volume rendering, VL_SLICE for slice rendering, or VL_ISO for isosurface rendering. The rendering type change only affects one variable, variable, at one given time step, time_step. If multiple timesteps are loaded into the system, this function has to be called for every time step seperately. vlset_render_type() intializes some internal data structures for the voxels based on the rendering type, therefore, it has to be called prior to any isosurface classification APIs, such as vliso_surface() or vliso_shade().
