class CullFaceAttrib

Bases: RenderAttrib

Indicates which faces should be culled based on their vertex ordering.

CullFaceAttrib.get_actual_mode()

Returns the actual culling mode, without considering the effects of the reverse flag. See also get_effective_mode().

static CullFaceAttrib.get_class_slot()

static CullFaceAttrib.get_class_type()

CullFaceAttrib.get_effective_mode()

Returns the effective culling mode. This is the same as the actual culling mode, unless the reverse flag is set, which swaps CW for CCW and vice- versa. Also, M_cull_unchanged is mapped to M_cull_none.

CullFaceAttrib.get_reverse()

Returns the ‘reverse’ flag. If this is true, the actual cull direction (clockwise vs. counterclockwise) is the reverse of what is specified here. This allows support for make_reverse(), which defines a CullFaceAttrib that reverses whatever the sense of culling would have been.

static CullFaceAttrib.make()

Constructs a new CullFaceAttrib object that specifies how to cull geometry. By Panda convention, vertices are ordered counterclockwise when seen from the front, so the M_cull_clockwise will cull backfacing polygons.

M_cull_unchanged is an identity attrib; if this is applied to vertices without any other intervening attrib, it is the same as applying the default attrib.

static CullFaceAttrib.make_default()

Returns a RenderAttrib that corresponds to whatever the standard default properties for render attributes of this type ought to be.

static CullFaceAttrib.make_reverse()

Constructs a new CullFaceAttrib object that reverses the effects of any other CullFaceAttrib objects in the scene graph. M_cull_clockwise will be treated as M_cull_counter_clockwise, and vice-versa. M_cull_none is unchanged.
