.SH DESCRIPTION
|
| 15 |
|
|
.I Bsdfview
|
| 16 |
|
|
renders a BSDF description interactively.
|
| 17 |
|
|
This program is a script that creates a rad input file (RIF)
|
| 18 |
|
|
then calls
|
| 19 |
|
|
.I rad(1)
|
| 20 |
|
|
to make an octree by calling
|
| 21 |
|
|
.I bsdf2rad(1)
|
| 22 |
|
|
and view the scene interactively.
|
| 23 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 24 |
|
|
The input is either a single XML file, such as might be produced by
|
| 25 |
|
|
.I genBSDF(1),
|
| 26 |
|
|
.I bsdf2klems(1),
|
| 27 |
|
|
or
|
| 28 |
|
|
.I bsdf2ttree(1),
|
| 29 |
|
|
or one to four scattering interpolation representation (SIR) files, as
|
| 30 |
|
|
might be produced by
|
| 31 |
|
|
pabopto2bsdf(1).
|
| 32 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 33 |
|
|
A rad input file will be produced, whose name matches the root of
|
| 34 |
|
|
the first input file but with any leading path removed (i.e., in
|
| 35 |
|
|
the current directory).
|
| 36 |
|
|
This RIF may be reused for subsequent viewing and rendering via
|
| 37 |
|
|
.I rad
|
| 38 |
|
|
without incurring the cost of another call to
|
| 39 |
|
|
.I bsdf2rad.
|
| 40 |
|
|
.PP
|
| 41 |
|
|
The quality preference may be set via the
|
| 42 |
|
|
.I \-q
|
| 43 |
|
|
option.
|
| 44 |
|
|
The number of processors to use may be specified with the
|
| 45 |
|
|
.I \-n
|
| 46 |
|
|
option.
|
