tunnelDepth

Syntax

member(whichTextmember).tunnelDepth
member(whichCastMember).modelResource(whichExtruderModelResource).tunnelDepth

Description

A 3D extruder model resource property, as well as a text cast member property. Using this property allows you to get or set the extrusion depth (the distance between the front and back faces) of a 3D text model resource Possible values are floating point numbers between 1.0 and 100.0. The default value is 50.0.

It is recommended that you see extrudeToMember entry for more information about working with extruder model resources and text cast members.

Example

In this example, the cast member logo is a text cast member. This statement sets the tunnelDepth of logo to 5. When logo is displayed in 3D mode, its letters will be very shallow.

member("logo").tunnelDepth = 5

In this example, the model resource of the model Slogan is extruded text. This statement sets the tunnelDepth of Slogan's model resource to 1000. Slogan's letters will be extremely deep.

member("scene").model("Slogan").resource.tunnelDepth = 1000
