The first string argument is a "thickness" parameter that may be used |

to hide detail geometry being proxied by an aggregate BSDF material. |

If a view or shadow ray hits a BSDF proxy with non-zero thickness, |
| 1082 |
|
it will pass directly through as if the surface were not there. |
| 1092 |
|
a parallel BSDF surface may be |
| 1093 |
|
placed slightly less than the given thickness away from the front surface |
| 1094 |
|
to enclose the complex geometry on both sides. |
| 1095 |
+ |
The sign of the thickness is important, as it indicates |
| 1096 |
+ |
whether the proxied geometry is behind the <emph>BSDF</emph> |
| 1097 |
+ |
surface (when thickness is positive) or in front (when |
| 1098 |
+ |
thickness is negative). |

The following three string parameters name variables for an "up" vector, |

These variables, along with the thickness, are defined in a function |

An optional transform is used to scale the thickness and reorient the up vector. |

If no real arguments are given, the BSDF is used by itself to determine |
| 1111 |
< |
reflection and transmission. |
| 1112 |
< |
If there are at least 3 real arguments, the first triplet is an |
| 1113 |
< |
additional diffuse reflectance for the front side. |
| 1114 |
< |
At least 6 real arguments adds diffuse reflectance to the rear side of the surface. |
| 1115 |
< |
If there are 9 real arguments, the final triplet will be taken as an additional |
| 1116 |
< |
diffuse transmittance. |
| 1117 |

All diffuse components as well as the non-diffuse transmission are |

modified by patterns applied to this material. |

The non-diffuse reflection from either side are unaffected. |

The surface normal of this type is not altered to face the incoming ray, |

If back visibility is turned off during rendering and there is no |
