==Detailed Description==
+
This class is the interface to point light in the scene.
+
It provides methods to access various parts of a light such as
+
transformation, color, range etc. All methods of this class are
+
implemented by the system. <span style="background:#ffcccc">( Experimental Class )</span> <syntaxhighlight lang="Python">

Description

This class provides operations specific to Point Lights. Besides the inherited member functions from RILight, one can also adjust the point light's light range values.

Inheritance

light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Point light") # use light name to find object
 
# set Parent
result = light_object.SetParent(prop2)
result = light_object.SetParent(None) #detach from parent
# link to &  unlink
result = light_object.LinkTo(prop2, RLPy.RTime(0))
result = light_object.UnLink(RLPy.RTime(0))
# set name
light_object.SetName( "new_name" )
#get bound
ret_max = RLPy.RVector3()
ret_center = RLPy.RVector3()
ret_min = RLPy.RVector3()
ret = light_object.GetBounds( ret_max, ret_center, ret_min )
print(ret)
#get pivot
ret_pos = RLPy.RVector3()
ret_rot = RLPy.RVector3()
light_object.GetPivot( ret_pos, ret_rot )
print(ret)
#clone object
clone_light_object = light_object.Clone()
print( clone_light_object )
#is selected
RLPy.RScene.SelectObject(light_object)
print(light_object.IsSelected()) #True

Member Functions

GetRange ( self )

Get the point light range.

See Also: SetRange

Returns

The value of the "range" attribute of the light node - float
light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Point light") # use light name to find object
 
#get light range
print(light_object.GetRange())

SetRange ( self, kTime, fRange )

Set the point light range.

See Also: GetRange

Parameters

kTime [in] The time at which to set the beam - RTime
fRange [in] The Light range value - float

Returns

Success - RLPy.RStatus.Success
Failure - RLPy.RStatus.Failure
light_object = RLPy.RScene.FindObject(RLPy.EObjectType_Light, "Point light") # use light name to find object
 
#set light range
light_object.SetRange(RLPy.RTime(0), 1000.0)
print(light_object.GetRange())
