shadingGeometryRelCtx([exists=boolean], [history=boolean], [image1=string], [image2=string], [image3=string], [name=string], [offCommand=string], [onCommand=string], [shadingCentric=boolean])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
shadingGeometryRelCtx is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This command creates a context that can be used for associating geometry
to shading groups. You can put the context into shading-centric mode
by using the -shadingCentric flag and specifying true. This means that the
shading group is selected first then geometry associated with the shading
group are highlighted. Subsequent selections result in assignments.
Specifying -shadingCentric false means that the geometry is to be selected
first. The shading group associated with the geometry will then be selected
and subsequent selections will result in assignments being made.
| string | Name of the context created. |
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
