Q3ReceiveShadowsStyle_New

You can use the Q3ReceiveShadowsStyle_New function to create a new shadow-receiving style object.

TQ3StyleObject Q3ReceiveShadowsStyle_New (TQ3Boolean receives);

receives

A Boolean value that determines whether the new style object specifies that objects in the scene receive shadows (kQ3True) or do not receive shadows (kQ3False).

DESCRIPTION

The Q3ReceiveShadowsStyle_New function returns, as its function result, a new style object having the shadow-receiving style specified by the receives parameter.

If a new style object could not be created, Q3ReceiveShadowsStyle_New returns the value NULL.

To change the current shadow-receiving style, you must actually draw the style object. You can call Q3Style_Submit to draw the style in retained mode or Q3ReceiveShadowsStyle_Submit (described next) to draw the style in immediate mode.
