  • None.

Definition

An instance of this DRM class describes a cone or a pyramid shape of a light source or directional light in terms of direction vectors for the central axis (light direction), the vertical axis, and horizontal and vertical angular widths.

Clarifications

1 This defines the horizontal lobe width, measured in degrees, between 0 and 360 inclusive.

This is measured perpendicular to the VERTICAL_AXIS <DRM Reference Vector> component.

2 This defines the vertical lobe width, measured in degrees, between 0 and 360 inclusive.

This is measured parallel to the VERTICAL_AXIS <DRM Reference Vector> component.

3 These are the lobe cross section axes.

One component <DRM Reference Vector> specifies the lobe axis direction with vector_type = LIGHT_DIRECTION.

The other component <DRM Reference Vector> specifies the vertical axis direction with vector_type = VERTICAL_AXIS.
