List of All Attributes

The following is a concise list of all the RenderAttribs supported by Panda3D. Additional documentation can be found by clicking on the name of the RenderAttrib.

• AlphaTestAttrib: Hides part of the model, based on the texture's alpha channel.

• AntialiasAttrib: Controls full-screen antialiasing and polygon-edge antialiasing.

• AudioVolumeAttrib: Applies a scale to audio volume for positional sounds.

• AuxBitplaneAttrib: Causes shader generator to produce extra data.

• ClipPlaneAttrib: Slices off a piece of the model, using a clipping plane.

• ColorAttrib: Tints the model. Only works if the model is not illuminated.

• ColorBlendAttrib: This specifies how colors are blended into the frame buffer, for special effects.

• ColorScaleAttrib: Modulates vertex colors with a flat color.

• ColorWriteAttrib: Causes the model to not affect the R, G, B, or A channel of the framebuffer.

• CullBinAttrib: Controls the order in which Panda renders geometry.

• CullFaceAttrib: Causes backfaces or frontfaces of the model to be visible.

• DepthOffsetAttrib: Causes the Z-buffer to treat the object as if it were closer or farther.

• DepthTestAttrib: Alters the way the Z-buffer affects the model.

• DepthWriteAttrib: Controls whether or not the model affects the Z-buffer.

• DrawMaskAttrib: Controls which cameras can see which objects.

• FogAttrib: Causes the model to be obscured by fog if it is far from the camera.

• LightAttrib: Causes the model to be illuminated by certain lights.

• LightRampAttrib: Enables HDR tone mapping or cartoon shading.

• MaterialAttrib: Changes the way the model reflects light.

• RenderModeAttrib: Used to enable wireframe rendering.

• RescaleNormalAttrib: Can disable the automatic correction of non-unit normals.

• ShadeModelAttrib: Can cause the model to appear faceted instead of smooth.

• ShaderAttrib: Gives almost unlimited control, but difficult to use.

• StencilAttrib: Causes the model to affect the stencil buffer, or be affected by the stencil buffer.

• TexGenAttrib: Causes the system to synthesize texture coordinates for the model.

• TexMatrixAttrib: Alters the existing texture coordinates.

• TextureAttrib: Applies a texture map to the model.

• TransparencyAttrib: Causes the model to be partially transparent.

Undocumented

Unfortunately, the Panda3D manual is still a work in progress: there are many aspects of it that are not fully documented yet. These attributes are not yet documented:

AudioVolumeAttrib, CullBinAttrib, DepthOffsetAttrib, DrawMaskAttrib, RenderModeAttrib, RescaleNormalAttrib, ShadeModelAttrib

However, although the manual does not document these classes, the Reference documentation does.
