This material should be used sparingly, as it may cause the light source calculation to blow up if it is applied to many small surfaces. |
| 569 |
|
This material is only supported for flat surfaces such as <a HREF="#Polygon">polygons</a> and <a HREF="#Ring">rings</a>. |
| 570 |
|
The arguments are simply the RGB reflectance values, which should be between 0 and 1. |

When the user specifies a new perspective, rvu quickly displays a rough image on the terminal, |

then progressively increases the resolution as the user looks on. |
| 1684 |

He can select a particular section of the image to improve, or move to a different view and start over. |
| 1685 |
|
This mode of interaction is useful for debugging scenes as well as determining the best view for a final image. |
