active3dRenderer
Syntax
the active3dRenderer
Description
3D Lingo movie property; indicates the renderer currently in use by the movie for drawing 3D sprites. This property is equivalent to the getRendererServices().renderer
property.
The possible values of the active3DRenderer
property are #openGL
, #directX7_0
, #directX5_2
, and #software
. The values #openGL
, #directX7_0
, and #directX5_2
, which are video card drivers, will lead to much faster performance than #software
, a software renderer used when none of the first three options are available.
The active3dRenderer
property can be tested, but not set. Use getRendererServices().renderer
to set this property.
Examples
These examples show the two ways to determine which renderer is currently in use.
put the active3dRenderer -- #openGL put getRendererServices().renderer -- #openGL
