Class Description

See also: : Class RadiosityEffect

Description:: This class is only available in release 5 or later.

This class defines the interface for accessing the Advanced Lighting Preferences from the 'Advanced Lighting' tab in the preferences dialog. It also provides access to the use/compute advanced lighting controls found in the Rendering dialog. This is a function-published static interface; you can use GetCOREInterface() to obtain an instance of the class, as follows:

IRadiosityPreferences* r = static_cast<IRadiosityPreferences*>(GetCOREInterface(IRADIOSITYPREFERENCES_INTERFACE));

This interface is also accessible via MAXScript as "<b>RadiosityPreferences</b>".

All methods of this class are implemented by the system.
